Because of the COVID-19/Coronavirus Pandemic, many of the ways that Christmas is celebrated might be different this year. Traditions and celebrations in the 'Christmas Traditions and Customs' and 'Christmas Around the World' sections are how Christmas is celebrated in a normal year.
whychristmas?com is one of the biggest (and best!) Christmas information sites on the web. You can find out the history of Christmas Traditions, learn how Christmas is celebrated around the world and get to know more about the Christmas Story and the birth of Jesus! The site is run by a Christmas loving web designer from the UK. Find out more about whychristmas?com...
The site was launched on 1st November 2000. It's updated as I find out new information. I do my best to make sure that all the information on the site is correct. Some of the sources I’ve used include books in my ‘Christmas library’, other Christmas experts, my own research and visitors to the site (mainly on Christmas around the world).
