Attitudes of Ukrainians toward rescheduling the celebration of Christmas

  • According to the results of a study conducted by the Rating Group, 25% of Ukrainian respondents support the idea of moving the celebration of Christmas from January 7 to December 25. Sixty-four percent of respondents oppose this idea. Another 7% stated that they are indifferent to this issue, and 4% were unable to answer.
  • In dynamics, the share of those who support rescheduling the date of Christmas has increased. In 2016, only 15% supported this idea, while 69% were opposed.
  • The highest level of support for moving Christmas is observed in the western region, where 43% support the idea and almost the same share do not support it. In other macro-regions, respondents are more likely to oppose the change: in the central region, 23% are in favor and 66% are against; in the southern region, 15% and 74%, respectively; in the eastern region, 14% and 74%. Slightly higher support for this initiative is observed among more affluent respondents and among those of middle and older age.
