History: Christmas Day in Bermuda has its roots in British colonial history, reflecting the island's strong historical ties to the United Kingdom. Since the early settlement of Bermuda by the English in the early 17th century, Christmas traditions have evolved on the island, blending British customs with local influences.
Traditions: Bermudians celebrate Christmas with a mix of British and island traditions. Homes and streets are festooned with lights and decorations, while traditional British Christmas fare is served alongside local dishes. A unique Bermudian tradition is the making of cassava pie, a sweet and savory dish made from cassava and chicken or pork, which is a staple at Christmas meals.
Carol singing and church services play a significant role in holiday celebrations, reflecting the island's Christian heritage. Another local tradition is Bermuda black rum cake, rich with dried fruit and soaked in local rum – a festive favorite.
Activities on Christmas Day:
Public celebrations may also include parades or performances that showcase Bermudian culture. In recent times, events such as Santa Claus parades earlier in December lead up to the main festivities of Christmas Day itself.
