New Year's Day

The date was fixed in its current position by Julius Caesar's calendar reform, and later preserved by the Gregorian reform of 1582. traditions vary widely, from first-footing in Scotland to writing resolutions for the months ahead.

New Year Holidays

Several countries, including Japan, Russia, Vietnam and much of Eastern Europe, close for several consecutive days so that families can travel and gather. The specific dates and the number of days off are set annually by government decree, and where a holiday falls at a weekend the following working day is often substituted.

Christmas Day

Christmas Day on 25 December is the Christian feast of the Nativity of Jesus and one of the most widely observed public holidays in the world. It is a legal holiday in most nations with Christian majorities or heritage, and a cultural holiday in many others. Customs include family gatherings, gift giving, special meals and decorated trees.

International Women's Day

International Women's Day on 8 March celebrates the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women and calls attention to gender equality.

Eid al-Fitr (estimated)

Eid al-Fitr is the festival that ends Ramadan, the Islamic month of fasting, and begins on the first day of Shawwal. It is a two or three day public holiday across much of the Muslim world. The date depends on the sighting of the new moon, so published calendars mark it as estimated until it is confirmed. Families gather for prayer, shared meals and charitable giving before the fast was broken each evening of Ramadan.
