Christmas Liberia

Christmas is a major Liberian public holiday on December 25, marked by candlelight church services, choir performances, and nativity programs alongside costumed masquerade traditions blending indigenous performance culture with the Christian holiday. Families gather for extended feasting, gift-giving, and new clothing purchases, with Christmas functioning as the opening half of a connected festive stretch running into New Year.

Liberian households trim their homes with decorations and gather for extended family feasting each December 25 as Christmas closes out the country's busiest stretch of the annual holiday calendar, observed as a major public holiday alongside its status as the principal Christian celebration of Christ's birth for Liberia's majority Christian population.
