I'm trying to compile a quiz on 'names of days', every year in the UK certain days have names i.e. Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Boxing Day, Good Friday, August Bank Holiday etc etc, can anyone add anymore to the list, thanks.

OK, thanks for the suggestions, what about days that have names and always fall on the same date, ie Valentines Day, Guy Fawkes Night, Halloween, St Patricks Day and April Fools Day, Christmas Day, Christmas Eve, Boxing Day, New Years Eve, New Years Day....... anymore please?
My birthday
For your quiz keep in mind that since you are asking for DAYS of the year that have a name you cannot, strictly speaking, include Christmas Eve.
St. Stephen’s day might catch them out in a quiz.
This quiz will be so long, peter, that the day on which it is held will forever after be known as Quiz Day.
The Queen's official birthday
