Hallmark's 2026 'Christmas in July' Lineup Brings the Jolly With 4 New Films
Hallmark Channel is saying, "Ho, ho, ho" to the holidays with its official "Christmas in July" lineup, which kicks off a little earlier this year.
The 14th annual "Christmas in July" event begins on Friday, June 26, and runs through Friday, July 31, with fans getting to watch feel-good favorites from years past to get into the festive spirit.
The new lineup, however, doesn't start until Wednesday, July 1, when season 2 of Christmas at Sea will begin streaming on Hallmark+.
The four all-new Hallmark Channel movies will be rolled out beginning Saturday, July 4. Christmas Under Construction marks the first holiday feature for the network followed by more premieres every Saturday through the end of the month.
