Are Christmas Eve and Christmas Day the same day? What is the difference?

Not one day. Christmas Day is on December 25th every year, and Christmas Eve is on December 24th every year.
Difference 1: Different dates <br /> Christmas is on December 25th every year, while Christmas Eve is on December 24th every year. Christmas Eve is always the day before Christmas, so people usually celebrate Christmas Eve before Christmas.
This holiday schedule is very similar to our country’s New Year’s Eve and Spring Festival. We also celebrate New Year’s Eve before going on to the Spring Festival.
Difference 2: Different holiday activities <br /> Christmas Eve activities are held on the night of December 24th. Families from all over the world gather together for a party or gathering, sing Christmas songs around the Christmas tree, eat Christmas dinner, and then share what they see and hear with each other, expressing their longing for each other.
On Christmas Eve, parents in every family will prepare gifts and put them in their children’s Christmas stockings, waiting for the children to wake up and open the gifts.
Christmas activities last for the entire day on December 25th. This day is usually the day for children to exchange Christmas presents and send Christmas cards to their friends. On Christmas Day the dinner will be more sumptuous, with pork, roast turkey, log cake, almond pudding, gingerbread and so on. On Christmas Day, people also go to Christian churches for special worship ceremonies.

Which is more important?

Speaking of which of these two festivals is more important, Christmas is naturally more important, because Christmas is the official time of Jesus' birth, and Christmas Eve is the day to announce the news of Jesus' upcoming birth, so Christmas Eve is the prelude to Christmas and is a festival to prepare for Christmas.
However, compared to Christmas, the Christmas Eve party is more lively because it is the eve of the holiday carnival, so people are extremely excited.
