In some countries, the 26th of December is known as Boxing Day.
The British and people of many other nations call it "Boxing Day". For countries that do not recognise "Boxing Day", it is commonly referred to as either St Stephen's Day or the Second Day of Christmas.
Boxing Day is the day right after Christmas Day in many countries. On this day, workers receive gifts from their employers. This is neither a fight day or a moving day, the term "boxing" has a unknown origin.
