  Most Jewish holidays. Chanukah, Passover, a case could be made for Yom Kippur (based on sheer service attendance).

  May I direct your attention to All Hallows Day, celebrated on 1 November? >
  
  Oh shit you’re right >
  
  another one is chistmas >
  
  No
  Edit: Read some comments, guess it is celebrated differently in other places. Forgive my ignorance. >
  
  No. Repent. >
  
  Some countries celebrate on Christmas Eve instead of Christmas Day. They open their presents and have the big dinner on the Eve. >
  
  That's the way it is in my country and I actually found weird how in movies people go to sleep and celebrate Christmas after waking up >
  
  See my family we do wake up and celebrate Christmas in the morning. You know that’s when Santa delivers the gifts at night and then you wake up to the gifts that Santa delivered. That’s just the way that I grew up. But I do definitely see the point of celebrating the night before as well. I guess it’s all just sort of what you’ve been taught as a kid or what y ou are used to. >
  
  In Norway, julenissen (santa) delivers the gifts in person on Christmas eve. >
  
  In Denmark, Santa isn't a Nisse, he is just "the Christmas man"(Julemanden). Same in German. >
  
  In Finland and in the other nordic countries we celebrate Christmas on Christmas Eve much more than the actual day >
  
  Hi neighbor >
  
  Hej på dig med granne >
  
  Finlandssvensk eller du minns fortfarande svenskan från skolan så bra? För visst är fortfarande svenska obligatoriskt i skolan för er? >
  
  Ja är finlandssvensk, o jo, svenska måste man fortfarande lära sig i skolan men de flesta finskspråkiga bryr sig int alls om det >
  
  Not true globally. In many countries Christmas Eve is the bigger celebration. >
  
  Looking at the answers, it seems that most people who celebrate Christmas at all, celebrate Christmas Eve more. >
  
  Easily in fact, because of population powerhouses like Brazil celebrating on the 24th.
  OP gives a fine example of r/USdefaultism >
  
  Except plenty of people in the U.S celebrate on Christmas Eve as well. >
  
  Sure, but as far as I can tell it's not nearly universal & usually a limited family tradition if it is celebrated on the 24th. Among those who celebrate on the 25th, the vast majority of them are American. >
  
  I’ll have you know I celebrate NYD with a hangover every year. It’s tradition. >
  
  Lies. In Sweden we celebrate Xmas eve. The day after is just the day after. In fact, we always celebrate the eve. >
  
  Latinoamerika gör samma sak--lätt mer folk som firar på den 24e.
  r/USDefaultism at play >
  
  people literally sit there counting down the seconds until they can celebrate it wdym >
  
  At least in my experience it’s “let’s get drunk and then count down until 11:00 pm and then let’s go to bed” maybe that’s just me though >
  
  Is the extra hour really that much of a struggle? >
  
  The one extra, not so much. It's the 3 extra hours and 5 extra drinks before that last hour.
