I have been over halloween, and also for St. Patricks day.

It was really cool on halloween, they had all kinds of halloween props up, and had a kids scavenger hunt to get candy from the youth counselors. For dinner they had special halloween deseerts.

On st. pattys day:
There was a man dressed up as a leprechaun that we got to take pictures with, and they had special food.

Both times this was on a Carnival cruise

I took Royal Carribbean cruise 2 Thanksgiving ago. Nothing special. Just another day. They served a Turkey dinner as one of the options. It was perfect.

This passed Christmas I spent in Grand Cayman. The island relies on the cruise ships for money. but they shut down for christmas and boxing day. the island was quiet and relaxing. many restaurants close, but the hotels serve holidays dinners.

I was on the QE2 in the Mediterranean once at Halloween, and they had a Halloween costume party/fancy dress ball that evening. There were generally not many kids on that ship, but they made a special effort for the kids that day -- the theater staff helped all the kids get costumed with theater makeup and costumes (really wild fun costumes!), and then took the kids all over the ship to show off, and trick-or-treating to the kitchens, the spa, the purser's office, etc., and even to the bridge, and then had a special Halloween party.

I've been on a cruise ship for New Years and 4th of July. New Years was on Norwegian and despite the fact that I hate that line, cruising then is amazing. It was so formal with lots of good music and free champagne in most of the lounges. I loved it.

4th of July was no big deal. That was on a Carnival ship. Nothing special happened though the band on the Lido deck played several songs like Born in the USA, and anything else that had the words USA or America in it. As the ship isn't reigstered in the US, and the stops weren't countries that celebrate our Independence day, it was kinda glossed over.

Easter I can't imagine would be a big deal at all since it's Sunday which is usually loading day so it would be just like any other embarkation day--ship doesn't set sail til late, casual dinner, etc. Nothing special. Plus chocolate bunnies or peeps wouldn't really be a good dessert for most people.

Most people who take a cruise on a holiday are trying to escape the holiday and hope the ship doesn't really make a big deal about it.
