Antarctica experiences continuous darkness during Christmas Day due to its position at the South Pole, where the sun does not rise during the winter months. Christmas occurs during the Southern Hemisphere's summer, but the polar regions have extreme variations in daylight. In late December, the Antarctic region is tilted away from the sun, resulting in 24 hours of darkness. Conversely, areas just outside the polar circle enjoy continuous daylight during this time.
