If you’re on the hunt for where to stream your cherished holiday films, you’ve landed in the right spot.
Both HBO Max and Hulu offer a delightful selection with titles like National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation, The Polar Express, and A Christmas Story. Hulu goes the extra mile by also featuring Home Alone, Home Alone 2: Lost in New York, A Very Jonas Christmas Movie, and Tim Allen’s festive favorite, The Santa Clause. For those eager to revisit the timeless classic It’s a Wonderful Life, Prime Video is your destination, while Apple TV charms audiences with A Charlie Brown Christmas.
Curious about what Peacock has in its holiday lineup? This streaming service offers the nostalgic 1970s gem Santa Claus is Coming to Town, the beloved 1969 animation Frosty the Snowman, and the perennial 1966 favorite How the Grinch Stole Christmas.
