After hours of intense internet research, during which I ignored all bodily needs in my quest for knowledge, I have made the following determination:
Australian people do celebrate Christmas, but it is very low on the “OFFICIAL HOLIDAYS IN AUSTRALIA POWER RANKINGS”, which doesn’t actually exist as a codified document, but is more of a national attitude towards the different holidays. Before this internet expedition in search of the truth, I wasn’t sure if Australians celebrated the holiday at all, but they definitely do even though it happens in the middle of the summer for them. They don’t do Christmas trees or presents; they just drink beer, eat vegemite, and wonder where all the snow is.
I did so much research that I now have the credentials to create an OFFICIAL HOLIDAYS IN AUSTRALIA POWER RANKINGS. So here it is:
1. Anzac Day
2. Australia Day
3. Dante Exum/Joe Ingles Commemorative Jazz Festival
4. Slow Internet Day
5. Picnic Day (this is apparently a real thing)
5.5 Steve Irwin Day
5.6 Vegemite Day
6. Christmas
7. [not officially named, but on April 13th every year, everybody just burns piles of coal in their yards because government leadership has informed them that global warming is fake]
[POWER GAP]
8. Easter
9. Columbus Day
10. Picnic Day II
11. Box a Kangaroo Day
[POWER ABYSS]
9001. Respect Aborigines and their Culture Day
