Disney+ has officially launched the 2025 edition of its Christmas Channel, which was first unveiled last year, featuring a stellar lineup of movies and TV shows to help embrace the holiday cheer. In September 2024, the House of Mouse's streaming service announced a new function that paved the way for it to showcase "always on" live streaming channels, which boast a lineup of nostalgic content, documentaries, and action-packed projects under the Star Wars and Marvel umbrellas. This function was only made available for Disney+ U.S. Premium subscribers. 

As part of its 2024 efforts, Disney+ launched its first-ever Christmas Channel, featuring a loop of holiday classics and originals. Following the success of the streaming service's livestreaming holiday channel launch, Disney decided to bring back this effort in 2025. 

Disney+ officially launched the "Season's Streamings" channel for U.S. Premium subscribers (under the Streams section) on November 4, 2025, aligning with the start of holiday programming. 

The content lineup in the livestreaming channel includes notable classics, such as the Home Alone movies, A Christmas Carol, Frozen II, and Miracle on 34th Street

It also has its fair share of Mickey Mouse-focused entries, which include the likes of Mickey's Christmas Carol and Mickey Saves Christmas. Marvel and Star Wars also made it to the list with The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special and LEGO Star Wars Holiday Special

Disney+'s Seasons Streaming Channel Is More Important Than You Think

Disney+'s launch of this holiday-themed livestreaming channel is more significant than fans think, as it allows families to avoid being limited by choices during the festive seasons of Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's. 

It offers effortless, always-on programming, which is perfect for background viewing during the busy holiday season. Given that part of the streaming experience is having difficulty choosing what to watch, this Season's Streaming channel fills a gap by letting viewers take a step back and enjoy the content that is currently livestreaming. 

Embracing this format allows Disney+ to stand out from its competitors because it essentially transforms the House of Mouse's streaming service into the go-to holiday hub. This differs from Netflix and HBO Max, where users must scroll through and select which content to watch during the Christmas season.
