What Christmas is

The Christian feast of the Nativity, fixed at 25 December since the fourth century and now a public holiday in more than 160 countries, religious observance and secular custom sitting side by side.

How the Date is Determined

The countdown uses the date recorded above. This entry uses a fixed Gregorian month and day. The observance date is kept separate from substitute employee/public-holiday days that a government may announce.

It is grouped under Christian for browsing; that label does not change how its date is verified.
