From the end of November to the beginning of the new year, festivities are abundant in this time of the year. The cultural variations being celebrated are plenty from: St. Nicholas Day, Immaculate Conception Day, Bodhi Day, Feast Day of Our Lady Guadalupe, Hanukkah, the Winter Solstice, Yule, Festivus, Christmas, Boxing Day, Kwanzaa, Zarathosht Diso, New Year’s Eve, to New Year’s Day.
