Who says you have to wait until December
to enjoy the magic of Christmas???
“Christmas in July” is the perfect excuse to bring a little festive cheer into the winter season!
What is Christmas in July?
A celebration mirroring a traditional December Christmas. For some, it’s about recapturing wintery Christmas magic in the Southern Hemisphere’s colder July or injecting festive cheer into the Northern Hemisphere’s summer.
There’s no official date, but many choose to celebrate on July 25th—or any weekend in July that suits.
