Nearly three-quarters of Brits plan to celebrate the holiday season with friends, known as 'friendsmas'. These gatherings involve simple activities such as movie nights, Secret Santa, and market visits, preferred for being more relaxed than family gatherings. The survey was commissioned by Lily O'Brien's chocolates.
Nearly three-quarters of Brits plan to celebrate the holiday season with their friends, a tradition increasingly referred to as 'friendsmas'.
The study was commissioned by Lily O'Brien's chocolates, who have collaborated with TV presenter Angela Scanlon to offer her top tips on how to have the best 'Friendsmas'. However, more than half of those surveyed admit that as they get older, it becomes increasingly difficult to find time to catch up with friends during the Christmas season. Because of various commitments, many friendship groups find themselves organising a time for 'friendsmas' as early as October.
ANGELA SCANLON'S TOP TIPS FOR A MEMORABLE FRIENDSMAS: 1. Make time for your tribe The festive season can be hectic, so schedule a date in the diary well in advance. It'll give you something to look forward to, and ensures you'll get that quality time before the Christmas chaos fully sets in.
