Lunch at 12:30ish. 1pm when the holiday is in a Sunday so people have time to go to church.

Our family comes to stay with us for several days, and we play it be ear on timing. We don’t have meal times set in stone.

We hosted a yoga/brunch thing at 10am this Thanksgiving and then a lot of people left around noon/1pm and then we told people only coming for Thanksgiving to come around 4-5, dinner was at 6pm.

5pm for both. We don’t do gifts for Christmas though with extended family. We give small stuff but we don’t open it together.

Are you the OP of the thread about your sister criticizing you for what time you hosted Christmas dinner?

Late afternoon, drives me nuts. Mg family are in another country my in laws are 15 mins away. They always want to host but it’s always dinner and they want us there for pre dinner cheese and crackers type food, then dinner, then gifts. I’m a morning person and DD is 10 now but used to go to bed earlyish, They would complain we were rushing… but never move if earlier. This year they asked us to come at 5. I told them I had to work on Monday and would be getting up at 5am do not staying late. They begrudgingly moved it to 4pm. Then made comments about us leaving early when it was 8pm. If I was hosting I would do a late lunch.

Conducting a poll… what time does your family generally have people over for Thanksgiving or Christmas?
