Mexico Christmas traditions

How is Christmas celebrated in Mexico? For starters, it lasts longer than Christmas in the United States. The holiday is celebrated from December 12th to January 6th and includes several traditions and customs exclusive to the country. Learn about a few of the most popular Mexico Christmas traditions below:

• Las Posadas occurs from December 16th-24th. Posadas or processions is a nine-day celebration representing the journey of Mary and Joseph to Bethlehem. People walk from house to house, singing and asking for a place to stay and celebrate with traditional food, drinks, music, and dance.
• Piñatas are an essential part of the Christmas season. They are usually shaped like a seven-pointed star, filled with sweets, and broken open during Las Posadas.
• Nacimentos or nativity scenes are popular during Christmas and are set up throughout the cities.
• Dia de Los Reyes, or Three Kings Day, is celebrated on January 6th. This holiday honors the Three Wise Men and includes gift giving and eating the traditional Three Kings Cake, a sweet bread topped with candied fruit.
