What is the biggest holiday celebration in your country? You can list more than one. I live in the US so I will say our biggest celebration is Christmas which is December 25th. The origins and meaning of Christmas varies, but for most it's a time to give gifts to love ones and celebrate with family and friends with a large dinner. Santa Claus brings gifts to those who have been especially good during the year. :)

I am in the US as well and I would have to agree with you. Christmas is the biggest holiday celebration in the US. I'm not positive what the 2nd one is, but I remember hearing on the news that it was Halloween.

411...That's really interesting information about Halloween. I know it's one of my favorite times to decorate.

In India the biggest holiday celebration is Deewali and Holi. Holi is a festival of colors. People throw different colors on each other. And Deewali is the festival to blow fire works
