Almost every country in the world celebrates the holiday season in some form. The basic premise is typically celebrating the end of the year or the birth of Christ. But, Christmas traditions around the world vary, depending on the culture you grew up in.

Depending on where you are, children might be waiting for reindeer, laying out shoes for Father Christmas, or awaiting Befana, the Christmas Witch. View the unique Christmas traditions around the world holiday we discovered by clicking on the location markers!
