This low-key event kicks off with a midnight Mass on 7 January. Monasteries close for fasting during the preceding 43 days, and Copts follow a strict vegan and fish diet. All Coptic businesses close for the day, and most Coptic families spend their time visiting family members and exchanging gifts.
