Why Are People Saying That Next Year Christmas Falls On 25/25/25? The Viral 'Christmas 2025' Memes Explained

Memers are already hyping up Christmas 2025 with a series of increasingly viral memes claiming that Christmas 2025 will fall on a very interesting date.

The memes, which claim that next year Christmas falls on 25/25/25, first started going viral on TikTok but now they're popping up everywhere, causing a little confusion wherever they're uploaded.

So why are people claiming that Christmas 2025 falls on 25/25/25 and is there any truth to this claim? Here's what you need to know.

What Is The 'Next Year Christmas Will Fall On 25/25/25' Meme?

At the beginning of December 2024, a Spanish TikToker posted a video in which he reacts with shock under a caption that translates to, "Next year Christmas will fall on 25/25/25." The video went viral, garnering over 8 million views in just under two weeks. However, the information in the video is incorrect, as there is no 25th month, meaning Christmas 2025 will fall on 12/25/25.

Then, about a week after the original video was posted, an English TikToker found similar success with a nearly identical meme. The video gained over 3 million views in just a few days and inspired others to post the same piece of misinformation, opening the floodgates for the meme.
