About National Boxing Day in the United Kingdom, Australia, South Africa and Canada
United Kingdom & Ireland , Australia
South Africa
Ends: Dec 26, 2021
DESCRIPTION:
Boxing Day in the Commonwealth countries including the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, Canada and South Africa is a day of thanks and sharing.
Beginning during the Victorian era, the day after Christmas was given off to servants in England. It was on this day the employer would present servants with a box of gifts to take home to their families. It is also the day to tip those whom have provided services over the year such as doormen, delivery people and salon workers. Traditionally, Boxing Day is the second day of Christmastide (The 12 days from Christmas to Epiphany). In the aforementioned countries, Boxing Day is a bank holiday.
There is also a legend tying Boxing Day into Christmas originating in the 10th century with the Duke of Bohemia, Wenceslas (The same as the Christmas song). Wenceslas, the legend goes, once helped a poor man passing through by giving him food and wine in boxes, prior to Franzia, of course!
