In short
Christmas Day falls on Friday 25 December 2026 and the Day of Goodwill on Saturday 26 December, both public holidays, giving a long weekend at the height of the summer holidays.
Christmas Day is on Friday 25 December 2026 and the Day of Goodwill on Saturday 26 December. Both are public holidays, so with the Sunday that makes a three-day weekend at the busiest point of the summer school holidays.
Plenty of restaurants open on Christmas Day, but many take bookings only, and some close. Book well ahead, and check opening hours with the place itself, because Christmas hours often differ from the usual ones. Bel Punto, for one, lists Christmas Day as one of its two closed days. What’s on lists the Christmas Day lunches that have been published nearby.
