Definite article before proper holiday names

Hi,
Can we put the definite article before holiday names. I think Mr.M (I think it's him) told us something like we can put the indeinite article 'a' before them if we. if I could use this phrase, second-categorize the name like "a Father's Day without a loving heart toward your father is ...", but can we put 'the' before it if we do anything?

I think I have heard this being used with the definite article and without often. Why is that? Isn't that a proper name like "Teacher's Day"?

the Passover and Passover
