Christmas falls on Friday, December 25, 2026 and New Year's Day on Friday, January 1, 2027, which is 7 days later — 1 week, or 5 business days counting Monday to Friday only. The first day is not counted and the last one is, the same way a calendar counts a stay. Both dates are fixed, so the gap is the same every year apart from leap-year shifts in the weekdays.
