Christmas in Australia is known as "Christmas Day" or "Boxing Day". Australians often celebrate Christmas by spending time with family and friends, exchanging gifts, and enjoying traditional holiday foods such as roast turkey, ham, and plum pudding. Many people also take advantage of the warm summer weather and head to the beach or have a backyard barbecue. In Australia, Christmas falls during the summer months, so the holiday is often a time for outdoor activities and relaxation.
