Traditionally Christmas or Fiestas de Navidad is a religious and family affair with heat, trees and ornaments everywhere and you should expect everything open after the 25th since there is no Boxing Day.

La Navidad is just a build up to The New Year celebrations and yes the new year break is noisy and in the pasts last for three or more days many businesses close as it heralds the start of the holiday season as it coincides with the hottest days of Summer. BA is densely populated,lots of traffic, hot and humid this time of year.

Porteños(BA call themselves)Long for a well deserved break and head mainly for the beaches to the coastal south west to Mar del Plata and surrounding areas of the province of Buenos Aires, Uruguay or Brazil.
