Midwinter Christmas

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Midwinter 'Christmas' or Yulefest is a Midwinter/Yuletide related celebration sometimes followed in Australia and New Zealand during the wintertime^{[citation needed]} (which on the Southern Hemisphere falls into the June-July-August period).

While having little connection with the actual Christmas holiday, it is often an occasion for work functions or similar events celebrating Yuletide traditions in wintery conditions. ^[1]
