seasonal greetings

Festive time salutations

Seasonal greetings are conventional well-wishes exchanged during holiday periods, especially around Christmas and New Year.

The phrase serves as a religiously neutral alternative to "Merry Christmas," appearing on cards, decorations, and in corporate communications: The company email closed with seasonal greetings.

Often used in the plural even when addressing one person.
