Since the liturgical year always begins on the first Sunday of Advent, the length of the liturgical year is always a multiple of a whole week. Most liturgical years are 52 weeks (364 days) long. However, in any year in which Christmas falls on a Monday, as well as any leap year in which Christmas falls on a Tuesday, the liturgical year that ends in early December of one of those years is 53 weeks (371 days) long.
