Depending on your approach to Christmas, that would be technically Saturnalia if you consider Christmas as the days leading to Dec. 24. For those who like an extended seasonal holidays (Canadians, for instance, are known for celebrating two months of Christmas season), Brumalia was the festival kicking from the Winter Solstice (Nov. 21) that would turn into Saturnalia the days prior Christmas Day.
