I need help with my dad?

So my parents are divorced, and I have a step dad with my mom which is who I live with since my dad has been gone half kd my life for work in the desert. I haven’t had christmas with my mom for about 4 years because my dad always insists on going to the City for Christmas with my aunt /uncle and cousins. I have no problem with that asides from him basically forcing me to go, even I had plans at home with my mom. My dad got home yesterday from work and he freaked out on me. He’s mad that I took on a fundraising job for my trip, and that I work on Christmas eve. He wants me to go to the city, but I want christmas with my mom for once. How can I stand up to him? I never have before and he has a bad temper
