Greek Christmas traditions

Christmas in Greece

The festival period lasts from 30 November to 6 January on the Greek calendar. 25 and 26 December is a public holiday in Greece. Christmas is known as Christougena (Χριστούγεννα) and people wish 'Merry Christmas' to each other saying 'Kala Christougana'. Most families set up Christmas trees and shops have decorations and lights. Presents are placed under the Christmas tree and are opened on 1 January, St Basil’s Day. In Greek tradition, Basil’s [of Caesarea] name was given to Father Christmas and he is supposed to visit children and give presents on 1 January [when Basil’s memory is celebrated], unlike other European traditions, where this person is Saint Nicholas and comes every Christmas.
