In accordance with the research objective, the authors provide a comparative analysis of the CHRISTMAS concept in the Russian and British linguistic worldviews. The research findings are as follows: relying on the data of the conducted linguistic experiment, the authors identify specificity of the CHRISTMAS concept representation in the Russian and British linguistic consciousness.
