holiday gathering
Seasonal family event
A holiday gathering is a social event where family, friends, or community members come together to celebrate a holiday.
The term often implies a larger, more formal occasion than a simple get-together: We're hosting the holiday gathering this year.
Holiday gatherings typically involve food, traditions, and sometimes gift-giving, with attendance carrying social obligation.
