Most of the time, when a certain date falls on a certain weekday, in the following year it falls on the following weekday. But when the period between the date and the same date a year later includes the leap year date February 29, the next occurance of the date falls instead on the second weekday after the previous occurance.

Because 2016 is a leap year, Christmas will "skip" Saturday. In 2016, Christmas will fall on Sunday. In 2017, Christmas will fall on Monday.
Does Christmas Day ever fall on a Wednesday?
Answer No -- Christmas can fall on any day. In the first years of the new millennium Christmas will fall on the following days:2001 - Tuesday2002 - Wednesday2003 - Thursday2004 - Saturday2005 - Sunday2006 - Monday2007 - Tuesday2008 - Thursday2009 - Friday2010 - Saturday2011 - Sunday2012 - Tuesday2013 - Wednesday (again)Christmas can fall on any day...However, when the year shortens to 365.166 days 365-1/6 days or 365 days and 4 hours, there will be a day of the week that Christmas Day never falls on depending on if you mean Christmas Day or Christmas Eve. When we have leap years every 6 years in the future, February 29 will only come on one day of the week every 6 years and it'll always be the same until February 30 is added or when a leap year is omitted. This is too far ahead and we still have a long while to go. Before then, we'll need to start having leap years every 5 years with several double leap years and then typically every 5 years and then omitted leap years and lots and lots of omitted leap years before we can start having leap years every 6 years and then several double leap years and then typically once every 6 years before we can determine what day of the week Christmas never falls on.Simple answer:No, Christmas falls on every day of the week after a period of 8 to 11 years.There is no day of the week that Christmas Day, or any date never falls on. Days get skipped because of leap years, but those days come round again and the date in question can fall on them in another year. In 2011, Christmas Day was on a Sunday and because 2012 was a leap year, Monday was skipped and Christmas Day was on a Tuesday. However, Christmas Day will be on a Monday in 2017.
