The 24th of December in the evening. We call it Christmas Eve (Juleaften) - no explanation needed there.
The day part of the 24th (Called Christmas Eve's Day - Juleaftensdag) is spend preparing for the celebrations in the evening.
The reason we do this however, is because of our history.
Christimas (called Jul in Denmark - Yule in english) is a traditon celebrated by the native nordic population of Europe since before Christianity adopted the tradition and turned it into what it is today..
In scandinavia, istorically speaking , a new day started in the evening, not in the morning like today. Which is why the Scandinavians celebrate Christmas in the evening - it's a part of the old tradition.
The 25th is usually spend with family, eating food and enjoying each others company.
