South of the equator, Christmas should be 24th June, 3 days after the midwinter solstice.

On the equator, you can cheat and get 2 xmases per year.

       I think we should move it to January. Everybody hates January.

       Maybe it should just move semi-randomly, like Easter, but with the date only being announced 42 days in advance, to pemit the timely purchase of advent calendars and brussls sprouts (which need to be boiled for a minimum of 35 days)

       Wouldn't it be much easier to keep track if we moved it to February 29th?

       People already have Christmas in July... it's for sales and other fun.[see link]
