With the celebrations for Christmas and New Year December may be one of the most festive and busy months of the year. This Wednesday 8, in addition, Argentina celebrates the first holiday of the last month of 2021.Why is it a holiday? On December 8, the Day of the Virgin Mary, a central figure of the Catholic religion, is celebrated in our country. Punctually the birth of the Immaculate Conception is remembered, one of the most popular apparitions of the mother of Jesus.
This holiday was first celebrated in Spain in 1644, but was declared a public holiday in 1854 by Pope Pius IX. Argentina, being a country whose majority religion is Catholicism, proclaimed this day as a national holiday. The Day of the Immaculate Conception is celebrated in a very special way by devotees of the Catholic religion in various parts of the world such as Spain, Colombia, Guatemala, Mexico, Panama or Chile where it is also a national holiday.
In addition to this holiday, we must bear in mind that the next holiday is December 25. The truth is that this year the festivities fall on during the weekend with which the aforementioned holiday will be celebrated on the last Saturday of the year as it is an immovable date.
