Changing Bar-Mitzvah Portions

Is changing a bar mitzvah Torah portion to a different portion allowed?

Answer:

Yes, if there is a need, or for convenience, the bar-mitzvah boy can read a portion later (but not earlier) thanhis birthday. However, a seudas mitzvah (celebratory meal–this can be a small affair) should be made on the actual day of the bar-mitzvah.
