OK here's the idea:
Yuletide, The Twelve Days of Yule: A non-commercial, or scavengers Winter festival of traditions celebrating old, new, disorder and harmony that acts as a challenge to those who choose to take part. The festival spans 12 nights from Dec 20th to January 1st, approximately from the longest night to New Year's Day, bridging the solar and Gregorian new year. There is no ticket to buy, just a decision to participate.
Below is a potential timetable composed of a fusion of historical world traditions, but there are no rules. It is up to each community to decide the best way to celebrate each day. One could practice alone or with friends. For those who wish to host a day or night for others to join their festivities, feel free to use the collaboration section.
