I've been to AA meetings on Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's... Often holidays are filled with family stress and people NEED the meetings then more than ever. I'd be quite surprised if it were canceled. If you want to be sure, call the Al-Anon local number and ask, but I'd say it's safe to show up. I agree, the sooner the better.
