12th Night


The defination for 12th Night in the Shorter Oxford English Dictionary as "the evening of the fifth of January.
A.K.A the Twelfth Day, the eve of the Epiphany, formerly the last day of the Christmas festivities.
Its observed as a time of merrymaking".
] However, there is currently some confusion as to which night is Twelfth Night: Some count the night of Epiphany itself (sixth of January) to be Twelfth Night.
