Brumalia would start approximately on November 24 and lasted until the festival of Saturnalia started. The manner of celebration could vary from moderate daily celebrations to regular orgies, depending on personal style of worship.You could say that those who did not party wisely during Brumalia would risk on missing out on the Roman equivalent of Christmas.
