What is las posadas?

Reading a story that has the sentence: :¿Y cuándo empiezan las posadas? Can not find a translation that makes sense. It also seems to be a celebration in Mexico during Christmas?

Hi, welcome to the forum.

I found this in the dictionary (located at the top of this screen):

Typical party held at Christmas. (Ante Meridian & Central America & Mexico)

So,

Your sentence is "When do the festivities (posadas) start?"
