How to Watch Freeform’s 25 Days of Christmas: Schedule, Streaming, and More

‘Tis the season, and CableTV.com’s gift to you is all the best ways to watch Freeform’s 25 Days of Christmas—full 2023 schedule included.

The 25 Days of Christmas movie marathon has been a cable staple since 1996, beginning on The Family Channel, which became FOX Family, then ABC Family, and now Freeform. The network may have changed hands more times than your aunt’s holiday fruitcake, but the December 1–25 Yuletide flick blitz(en) grows more popular every year.

Since CableTV.com doesn’t want you to miss a second of the latest edition of 25 Days of Christmas, we’ve rounded up the entire 2023 schedule and best ways to get Freeform on cable, satellite, and live TV streaming services. Spoiler: Freeform is owned by Disney, so it’s easier to find than an ugly Christmas sweater on Etsy.
