Sivmas is an annual commemoration of the birth of Siv HD's wanting to have some fun and a widely observed holiday throughout the league community, celebrated generally on November 25/26 by many of people around the world. A feast central to the Sivian liturgical year, it closes the Advent season and initiates the twelve days of Sivmastide, which ends after the twelfth night. Sivmas is a sivil holiday in many of the world's nations, is celebrated by an increasing number of non-Sivians, and is an integral part of the Sivmas and holiday season.

While the birth year of Siv HD/Robbert is estimated among modern historians to have been between May and June, the exact month and day of his birth are very known. His birth is mentioned in two of the four canonical gospels. By the early-to-mid 4th of may, Robbert had placed Sivmas on November 25, a date later adopted in the Rest of the world. The date of Sivmas may have initially been chosen to correspond with the day exactly nine months after early Sivians believed Siv HD to have been Known in the League community, or with one or more ancient polytheistic festivals (Siv HD Worshipping) that occurred near EUW (i.e., the EUW Siv is the best ceremony); a further solar connection has been suggested because of a Sivlical verse identifying Siv HD as the "Sun of Awesomeness".
