Every year!
Christmas Day will be on a Sunday in 2011.
In the year 2030 December 25th (Christmas) will be a Wednesday.
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!
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.
December 25, 2025 will be on a Thursday.
Christmas Day is always on the 25th of December and can fall on any day of the week in a normal year or a leap year. So the answer to your question is that in a leap year Christmas Day can be on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday or Saturday.
Christmas falls on Sunday in 2016.
Christmas of 2011 was on a Sunday, and including the leap year day, February 29, 2012, the time from Christmas 2011 to Christmas 2012 is 52 weeks and 2 days, which means that Christmas 2012 will fall on the second weekday after Sunday, which is Tuesday.
The last year prior to 2011 with the same day and date combination was 2005.
