Tradisyon din ng pamilyang Pilipino ang pagsasalu-salo ng hapunan sa bisperas ng Pasko, matapos ang huling Misa ng Simbang Gabi. Kadalasan ay isang munting pista ang idinaraos sa tahanan, kasama ang ilang kamag-anak at malalapit na kaibigan, kasabay ng pagbibigay ng mga regalo. Hindi kinakailangang masagana ang hapag-kainan. Higit na mahalaga ang magkasama at magkabuklod ang buong mag-anak.

Ang Simbang Gabi ay isa sa mga pinakamatagal at pina-popular na kaugalian ng mga Filipino tuwing Kapaskuhan. Ito ay kilala din sa tawag na Misa de Gallo na ang ibig sabihin ay "Mass of the Rooster" o Misa ng Tandang. Ang tradisyon na ito ay mahalaga sa bawat Pilipino sapagkat ito ay simbolo ng pagdating ni Hesucristo. Ang Simbang Gabi ay serye ng siyam na araw na nobena para kay Birheng Maria na nag-uumpisa tuwing Disyembre 16 at nagtatapos sa Disyembre 24.
