In 2014, when the question was asked, it will be a Thursday.
New Year's Day is one week after Christmas Day.
In the year 2014, Christmas Day will be on a Thursday.
No. Christmas Day and New Year's Day are never on the same day in the same year. Christmas Day is always one day in the week later. New Year's Day in 2025 will be on a Wednesday and Christmas Day will be on a Thursday. A week after that, New Year's Day of 2026 will be on a Thursday. It is the Christmas Day of one year and the New Year's Day of the next year that are always on the same day of the week.
Christmas Day will be on a Sunday in 2011.
New Year's Day and Christmas Day of the same year never fall on the same day. The 1st of January 1945 was on a Monday and the 25th of December 1945 was on a Tuesday. That is completely normal. A week after Christmas Day is New Year's Day, but that is New Year's Day of the following year. So Christmas Day 1945 would have been on the same day of the week as New Year's Day 1946, the next year. In the same way, Christmas Day 1944 and New Year's Day 1945 were on the same day of the week.
Tuesday
Christmas Day will be on a Wednesday in 2013.
December 25, 2025 will be on a Thursday.
Friday
Sunday
The day of the week that Christmas falls on in the year 2013 is on a Wednesday. Since Christmas fell on a Tuesday last year in 2012, this year it must be the day after which is Wednesday. This is because every year, any date will fall on the day after it fell on the year before. For example, since Christmas falls on a Wednesday this year, it will fall on a Thursday next year in 2014.
Christmas day will be on a Saturday 2010!
