Christmas in Australia is celebrated on the 25th of December, just like in most other parts of the world. However, since it is summer in Australia at that time, they often have a different feel to the holiday. Instead of the usual snow and cold weather, Australians enjoy hot weather, beaches, and outdoor activities like barbecues, picnics, and swimming. It's also common to see Australian animals such as koalas, kangaroos, and emus in decorations and costumes during the holiday season.
