Well, New Year on the Julian calendar would probably be in the "Some other variety" category.
Another possibility would be the perihelion of the Earth [wikipedia.org] which is on 2 January in 2013 but was on 5 January in 2012. There are lots of possibilities in the period just before and shortly after the December solstice, depending on your ethnic/religious preferences, such as Beaivi [wikipedia.org], Brumalia [wikipedia.org], Sol Invictus [wikipedia.org], Malkh [wikipedia.org], Dongzhi [wikipedia.org], Saturnalia [wikipedia.org], Pancha Ganapati [wikipedia.org], Yule [wikipedia.org], Soyal [wikipedia.org], Twelfth night [wikipedia.org], Yalda [wikipedia.org], Ziemassvetki [wikipedia.org], and so forth.
