Well, December 25th of course! In 2025, that falls on a Thursday โ€” so go ahead and block your calendar, make your travel plans, and (if you're like us) start thinking about your holiday decorations early.

While the date of Christmas never changes, the day of the week it falls on does โ€” and that can make a big difference in how you plan your holiday season.

Christmas Day 2025 lands on a Thursday, which sets up a prime opportunity for a long holiday weekend. ย schools and workplaces will be closed from Thursday through Sunday, making this one of the better years for extended celebrations.

Whether you're hosting family, traveling across the country, or just looking forward to lounging in your pajamas, a midweek Christmas means more time to enjoy the season.

A Thursday holiday pushes most last-minute activities forward โ€” including shipping deadlines and in-store sales. Hereโ€™s a helpful timeline:

  • Black Friday: November 28, 2025
  • Cyber Monday: December 2, 2025
  • Standard shipping cutoff: Likely around December 17โ€“19
  • Last weekend before Christmas: December 20โ€“21
  • Final USPS/FedEx deadlines: Likely December 20 or earlier

If you're buying online, especially from small businesses or Etsy-style shops, we recommend ordering by December 15th to stay ahead of delays and avoid those dreaded โ€œarrives after Christmasโ€ messages.

A Thursday Christmas also means:

  • Airports will be busiest Mondayโ€“Wednesday of that week
  • Office parties and holiday events will likely peak the weekend before (Dec 20โ€“22)
  • Many schools will break starting the Friday before (Dec 19)

If youโ€™re hosting or traveling, itโ€™s best to confirm plans early โ€” everything will get booked faster this year.

Planning ahead this year doesnโ€™t just save you money โ€” it saves your sanity. That means:

  • Ordering gifts in early December
  • Mailing Christmas cards by the 10th
  • Getting your tree up by the first weekend of the month
  • Taking advantage of early holiday sales (and avoiding shipping chaos)

Yes, you read that right โ€” Hanukkah and Christmas begin on the same day in 2025, making it a unique year for families who celebrate both holidays.
