Best Answer

Christians celebrate three festivals, they are Good Friday , Easter and Christmas.

Answer:

There are no consistent holidays, festivals, prayers, music or ceremonies that are consistently observed by all Christian sects. Many Christians have "Holy Days" at Easter and Christmas but this is not mandated by any central authority.

As an example the Roman Catholic "Holy Days of Obligation" are:

  • 1 January: Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God
  • 6 January: the Epiphany
  • 19 March: Solemnity of St. Joseph, Husband of the Blessed Virgin Mary
  • Thursday of the sixth week of Easter: the Ascension
  • Thursday after Trinity Sunday: the Body and Blood of Christ
  • 29 June: Solemnity of Sts. Peter and Paul, Apostles
  • 15 August: the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary
  • 1 November: All Saints
  • 8 December: the Feast of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary
  • 25 December: the Nativity of our Lord Jesus Christ (Christmas)

Many of these would not be celebrated by other Christian sects and some of those sects would celebrate Good Friday or Easter
