Nochebuena


Nochebuena and Navidad are Spanish words referring to the night of Christmas Eve and celebrated on December 24 every year.

Nochebuena, for Latin American cultures, is often the biggest feast for the Christmas season and is the Spanish tradition annually. Nochebuena (literally "the Good Night") is the Spanish word for Christmas Eve. In Spain, Latin America, and the Philippines, the evening consists of a traditional family dinner. Roasted pig, or lechón is often the center of Noche Buena for feasts around the world. It is believed that the tradition dates back to the 15th century when Caribbean colonists hunted down pigs and roasted them whole as the family gathered for Christmas Eve.

The 2016 Elena of Avalor season one episode, "Navidad", focused on Nochebuena.
