Official observances, world days, local context, and everyday celebrations for people who need something worth reading, sharing, or talking about today.

Boxing Day — World Calendar Day
World Calendar Day

Boxing Day

The Test cricket starts at the MCG. The Sydney to Hobart yacht race starts in the harbour. The sales start online at midnight. And every Australian who ate too much yesterday is on the couch watching cricket they would not normally watch because it is Boxing Day and that is what you do.

Stephanstag — World Calendar Day
Regional/Cultural Day

Stephanstag

The second day of Christmas, and a public holiday in Liechtenstein. The tradition is to visit extended family, and the meal is typically leftovers from Christmas Day. St. Stephen's Day is also the traditional start of the winter sports season : if there is enough snow, the slopes at Malbun open, and the families of Vaduz and Schaan take to the mountains. In the evening, the Christmas tree candles are lit for the last time (in many households, the tree is taken down on December 27th), and the Rauhnächte begin : the wild nights between Christmas and Epiphany.
