About Christmas Day

A federal holiday and one of the most widely observed days of the year in the United States.

The date is fixed, so the weekday moves each year. A Saturday occurrence is observed on Friday 24 December and a Sunday occurrence on Monday 26 December — which is why some years show two adjacent marked days on the calendar.

How the date is set

Always 25 December. Because the date is fixed rather than pinned to a weekday, it lands on a different day each year. When it falls on a Saturday, federal offices close the Friday before; when it falls on a Sunday, they close the Monday after.
