Today - Wednesday - is Pessach Sheni - the 2nd [minor] Pessach.
In the time of the Bet Hamikdash, if a person can't bring the Korban Pessach on Erev Pessach, they have a 2nd chance a month later.
In the afternoon of 14th Iyar they would bring the Korban Pessach and roast it. After nightfall they would eat it with Matza and Marror. The leftovers were burnt the next morning.
Unfortunately this year we again missed both chances to bring the Korban Pessach.
