Christmas Day is just another day for Thais, however, New Years Eve-that is something different altogether-huge party!
Both New Years Eve and the next day are public holidays. Songkran is the nearest thing to Christmas for family gatherings, which is in April, and goes on for officially for 3 days. There is also Childrens Day, a weekend in January usually that is like Christmas for children only.
