New Year's Day is one week after Christmas Day.
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.
In the year 2014, Christmas Day will be on a Thursday.
Tuesday
Friday
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.
Sunday
It's a brain-teaser type of question:So, it seems like Christmas Day and New Year's Day always fall on the same day of the week. However, in 1939, the year of World War II, Christmas fell on a Monday while New Year's fell on a Sunday. Why? It's a brain teaser.In any given year, Christmas and New Year's fall on different days of the week.Think of it like this: Christmas occurs around 51 weeks later in the year than New Year's Day, which occurs in the first week of the year. Every year! The year 1939 was no different.Explanation: Many people tend to consider Christmas first followed by New Year's exactly one week later. Therefore, it seems as though the two holidays would always occur on the same day of the week. However, the New Year's Day that occurs exactly one week after Christmas Day is actually in the following year (in this case, New Year's Day 1940). That's the trick to this question. New Year's Day always occurs before Christmas Day each and every year, which means they are often (but not necessarily always) falling on different days of the week each year.In 1939, New Year's Day was on a Sunday and Christmas Day was on a Monday.
Christmas day will be on a Saturday 2010!
