The tradition of "Christmas in July" is believed to have originated at a girls' summer camp in 1933 called Keystone Camp in Brevard, North Carolina. The camp decided to celebrate the holiday six months before Christmas as a fun and festive event.
This unique celebration has evolved, including caroling, decorating a Christmas tree, visiting Santa Claus, exchanging presents, and even creating fake snow made of cotton. It has become a part of pop culture, offering a mid-year escape that still captures the joy and spirit of Christmas.
