SOLEMNITY OF THE IMMACULATE CONCEPTION
The Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception is a holyday of obligation. But if 8 December is the Second Sunday of Advent the solemnity is transferred to Monday 9 December but is not a holyday of obligation. This happens this year. It happened most recently in 2013 and 2002 and will happen again in 2024.
The solemnity appears on p 6 of next year's Liturgical Calendar but note the brackets and the date 9 December. Immediately we are aware that is one of the years when it is not a holyday of obligation. On p 32, Monday 9 December is the solemnity but without +, an indication of Sundays and Holydays of Obligation (p 6).
