I'm interested in familiar holiday tunes that work for contras. I know I've danced to Jingle Bells a couple of times (as Alan suggested), and think I remember doing a mixer to Gloria in Excelsis Deo. Any other ideas?

In my experience, choosing dances because their titles fit a particular theme isn't the best way to make programs.
For Christmas holiday dances I'm used to bands slipping familiar holiday tunes into their regular sets. (Jingle Bells fits in nicely as a bouncy tune. Several carols can be played as waltzes.) You can also playfully alter the names of dances you'd want to call anyway to make them fit the theme.
