Another pointless British holiday...but we'll take it!
In almost all Commonwealth countries, the Boxing Day Holiday is usually observed on December 26 (the day after Christmas). But whenever Christmas falls on a Saturday or Sunday (as is the case this year), then Boxing Day is actually celebrated on the next 2nd weekday (the 1st reserved for Christmas, of course). Which means that Christmas will be celebrated today and Boxing Day tomorrow, December 27....Got it!
Now, for the anglophiles who wonder not when, but what Boxing Day is, click here....

This is so true. I also like how they blame almost all of these pointless holidays on bankers.
