We celebrate Christmas on the seventh of January

On the fifth of January the Godfathers of the
Event called Koledicas wooden fire organize
wooden fire , meal, drink and music on some
locations in the cities. People sing songs,
dance, eat food and enjoy in the festivities. We
wait Jesus to be born and we are all awake. The
person who finds the coin in his bread is chosen
to be the Godfather of the Event next year.
All the people who participate in the Event clean
the streets after the Event. This Event is a
symbol that people accept Gods warmth and light
and the darkness and the ignorance are destroyed
