Jolly in June! Hallmark's Christmas in July Lineup Includes 2 New Movies!
If you're like me, you don't mind a holiday movie or two in the middle of July. It serves as a nice respite from the hot summer months and allows one to be able to get lost in a Christmas movie filled with snow, skates and let's be honest—studs! Heck, even a certain AFC Richmond coach gave props to Hallmark Christmas movies in a recent episode of Ted Lasso. With summer bringing all its heat and humidity, Hallmark Media is announcing their popular Christmas in July programming event. Now in its 11th year, this year's holiday cheer will feature two new original movie premieres as well as holiday movie "merrythons" on both Hallmark Channel and Hallmark Movies & Mysteries.
Fans also have the opportunity to vote for their favorite Christmas movies each week on the Hallmark Movies Checklist app with the winners being shown on July 4th weekend.
Hallmark Movies & Mysteries starts the jolly in June, with Merry Movie Week June 23-30. The fun starts with a wintry weekend of nonstop holiday favorites from Friday, June 23 at 11 p.m. ET through Monday, June 26 at 3 a.m. ET. Viewers can catch mini-merrythons starting each night at 7 p.m. ET Monday, June 26 through Friday, June 30.
