Jews don't celebrate anything instead of Christmas. This is because Jesus plays no role whatsoever in Judaism, therefore there is no Jewish holiday to celebrate him.

Some people mistakenly believe that Channukah is the "Jewish Christmas", however, this couldn't be further from the truth. Channukah celebrates the rejection of forced assimilation, celebrating Christmas would directly violate the meaning of Channukah.
