There is no "Jewish Christmas". As Christmas is a celebration of Jesus and Jesus plays no role in Judaism at all, there is no Jewish celebration for him.
There are many people who mistakenly believe that Chanukah is the "Jewish Christmas", however, this couldn't be further from the truth. Chanukah, which celebrates the successful rejection of forced assimilation, is the antithesis of Christmas.
Hanukkah may be as early as November and as late as New Years Eve.
Hanukkah starts on the Hebrew calendar date of 25 Kislev, and lasts for eight days. Here, for example, are the coinciding secular dates for several years:
2011: December 20-28
2012: December 8-16
2013: November 27-December 5
2014: December 16-24
2015: December 6-14

Mostly Christmas. The Jewish minority in Norway celebrates Hanukkah. Only Jewish people or those of Jewish decent celebrate Hanukkah.
There is no direct Jewish equivalent of Christmas. This is because Jesus plays no roles whatsoever in Judaism, therefore, Jews do not celebrate his birth. There is no holiday in Judaism that is similar to Christmas.
