Boxing Day is a public holiday in Sierra Leone

Boxing Day in Sierra Leone is celebrated annually on December 26th, following Christmas Day. This public holiday has its roots in the British colonial period, as Sierra Leone was under British rule from 1808 to 1961.

Historically, Boxing Day was a day off for servants when they received a 'Christmas Box' from their masters. The servants would also go home to give 'Christmas Boxes' to their families. This tradition has evolved into a day of sharing and giving.

In Sierra Leone today, Boxing Day is marked by spending time with family and friends, exchanging gifts, and offering help to the less privileged. Many people visit orphanages and hospitals to donate food, clothes and other essential items.

The day is also characterized by festive events such as music concerts, dance performances and football matches. It's a time for relaxation and enjoyment following the Christmas holiday.
