Boxing Day

Boxing Day is a holiday observed in the United Kingdom and much of the British Commonwealth on December 26. Traditionally, servants receive Christmas gifts from their employers on December 26, after the family celebrations.

Boxing Day is now a public holiday in the UK, and traditionally a day of sport. Like other public holidays which may occur on a non-working day, the "day off" will occur on the first day after the public holiday that would otherwise be a working day, though Boxing Day itself remains on the 26th

In Ireland the 26th is known as St Stephen's Day or [Wren's Day]?.
