We use “ON” with calendar’s date and days.
on Boxing Day | on Christmas Day | on the 21 of May | on the first of November | on Friday | on 16 May 1999 | on me birthday

And in next expression:
on a rainy day (morning, night) | on somebody’s arrival

We must remember!!!!!

1. We not use at/on/in before words:
next and last:

Example:
I'll see you next morning.
It didn't rain last month.

2. In spoken English we often leave out "ON" before days (Sunday, Monday)

Example:
I'll see you on Friday or I'll see you Friday.

3. In a few minutes / in six mounths ets.

The train will be leaving in a few minutes.
Andy has gone away. He'll be back in a week.

4. You also say "In six months' time", "In a week's time" etc.

They're getting married in six months' time.

5. We also use in ... to say how long it takes to do something.

I learnt to drive in four weeks.
