The Best Christmas Movies on Disney+

November 7, 2022

Santa

Holiday magic comes from the little things that make the season feel special, like the music, traditions, treats and, of course, movie nights! From cherished classics to new fan favorites, you can find a whole bunch of festive flicks on Disney+.

And if you’re a Disney® Premier Visa® Credit Cardmember, you can earn 5% in Disney Rewards Dollars when you make purchases directly at DisneyPlus.com, Hulu.com or ESPNPlus.com.1 You can also earn back up to $13.99 per month for three consecutive months in statement credits when you use your Disney Premier Visa Card to purchase the Disney Bundle directly at DisneyPlus.com or Hulu.com.2 Please note that the price of the Disney Bundle (with Disney+ (No Ads), Hulu (With Ads), and ESPN+ (With Ads)) will increase from $13.99 to $14.99 beginning on December 8th, 2022. Learn more at disneyplus.com/priceinfo. Now, let’s see which movies made the nice list.

Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas

What’s this? Jack Skellington’s version of Christmastime has a special place in the hearts of fans who love a good song, a good scare and a few snakes among the gifts. Mixing yuletide fun with tricks and treats, Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas shows us that the holidays can be whatever we want them to be. Watch it for Christmas—or any of the other six holidays featured in the madcap movie!

The Santa Clause Films with The Santa Clauses

When you watch this movie, expect big jolly laughs! This throwback favorite from the 90s stars Tim Allen as Scott Calvin, who magically (and hilariously) transforms into Santa Claus. Faced with filling the big guy’s shoes, he grows into the Santa suit, and the job grows on him. Once you make your way through all three of The Santa Clause movies, check out The Santa Clauses—a Disney+ original series as packed with fun as Santa’s sleigh.

Home Alone Films with Home Sweet Home Alone

Ready for some nostalgia, comedy and action? Since 1990, this Christmas movie series has made fans wonder what they might do with the house to themselves for the holidays—and dream up some creative antics to battle burglars. After the original Home Alone movies, watch a new story unfold in the 2021 Disney+ Original movie Home Sweet Home Alone.

The Muppet Christmas Carol

It’s the Charles Dickens classic with a twist: music and Muppets! The Muppet Christmas Carol captured hearts in 1992, and now fans can enjoy it on Disney+. Prepare for some tears, lots of laughs and an adorable baby Kermit version of Tiny Tim. This is a good one to watch again when there’s only “One More Sleep Til Christmas.”

Disney’s A Christmas Carol

And we can’t forget about another beloved version of this tale: Disney’s A Christmas Carol. As always, Scrooge confronts the ghosts of Christmas past, present and future—and this time they’re all played by the charismatic Jim Carrey. This movie charmed fans by staying true to the book while also bringing Dickens’ imagination to life with wild 3D effects.

Olaf’s Frozen Adventure

If you’re dreaming of a white Christmas, this animated favorite is sure to satisfy. Join the world’s cutest snowman and his friend Sven in Olaf’s Frozen Adventure, as they set out to save the holidays for Anna and Elsa, helping them find their own Christmas traditions.

Olaf's Frozen Adventure

Marvel Studios’ Iron Man 3

Yes, Marvel Studios’ Iron Man 3 is a Christmas movie. Marvel fans have made it a holiday tradition, as it takes place on Christmas Eve and is packed with heartwarming lessons about love, family and becoming the best versions of ourselves. Watch and enjoy Tony Stark’s Scrooge-like transformation into a better person and hero.

Noelle, a Disney+ Original

Noelle offers an empowering take on the Santa story. When her brother runs away from his new role as Santa Claus, Noelle ventures out of the North Pole to go find him. In the process, she shows she’s got what it takes to be the first female Santa. This festive film became an instant fan favorite in 2019, and it deserves a spot in any holiday movie marathon.

Prep & Landing

Lanny and Wayne are two of the North Pole’s tech-savvy, stealth elves on a mission to clear the way for Santa’s sleigh. This animated holiday special is a fun, adventurous story about the unsung heroes of Christmas, the ones who hang the stockings with care and make sure no creature is stirring. Loved for its whimsical spy gadgets and cheeky references to Christmas specials past, Prep & Landing packs a lot of holiday spirit into a little package.

Prep and Landing

To make this season of movie magic extra special, sprinkle in some cute pajamas, snuggly blankets and pillows from Disney. Check out loungewear and bedding on shopDisney.com, where Cardmembers save 10% on select purchases with the Disney® Visa® Credit Card.3 Oh, what fun!

  1. Earn Disney Rewards Dollars with the Disney Premier Visa Card

    Disney Rewards Dollars are subject to the Disney Rewards Dollars Terms and Conditions for Disney Visa Credit Cards available at DisneyRewards.com/Terms.

    You will earn one percent (1%) in Disney Rewards Dollars for every dollar of Qualifying Purchases (as defined below) made. You will earn an additional one percent (1%) in Disney Rewards Dollars for every dollar of Qualifying Purchases made at (i) Disney branded point of sale locations (owned and operated by Disney Rewards, LLC or its affiliates) as well as a select number of other locations owned and operated by third parties where Disney Rewards Dollars may be redeemed and (ii) at any of the types of merchants in the following rewards categories: gas stations, grocery stores and restaurants (for a total of 2% on these Qualifying Purchases). You will earn an additional four percent (4%) in Disney Rewards Dollars for every dollar of Qualifying Purchases made directly at DisneyPlus.com, Hulu.com, or ESPNPlus.com for (a) a Disney+, Hulu or ESPN+ monthly or annual subscription, or (b) The Disney Bundle subscription, or (c) additional Disney+, Hulu, or ESPN+ purchases, including Premier Access on Disney+, add-ons on Hulu, and pay-per-view events on ESPN+ (for a total of 5% on these Qualifying Purchases). Your purchase of any of these subscriptions or additional Disney+, Hulu or ESPN+ purchases will not earn an additional 4% in Disney Rewards Dollars if your purchase is made through a third-party device or digital platform (unless such device or platform redirects to DisneyPlus.com, or ESPNPlus.com for purchase) or as a bundle with cable services or as another bundle. Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+ gift card and subscription card purchases that are purchased directly from DisneyPlus.com, Hulu.com or ESPNPlus.com will earn an additional 4% in Disney Rewards Dollars, but such gift card and subscription card purchases that are purchased from a point of sale location other than DisneyPlus.com, Hulu.com or ESPNPlus.com will not earn an additional 4% in Disney Rewards Dollars. Merchants who accept Visa credit cards are assigned a merchant code, which is determined by the merchant or its processor in accordance with Visa procedures based on the primary types of products and services the merchant sells. Chase groups similar merchant codes into categories for purposes of making rewards offers to you. Please note: Chase makes every effort to include all relevant merchant codes in its listed rewards categories. However, even though a merchant or some of the items that it sells may appear to fit within a rewards category, the merchant may not have a merchant code in that category. When this occurs, purchases with that merchant and the purchases of Disney goods or services at locations that are not solely owned and operated by Disney will not qualify for the additional one percent (1%) or four percent (4%) in Disney Rewards Dollars, as applicable. Purchases submitted by you, your authorized users, or the merchant through third-party payment accounts, mobile or wireless card readers, online or mobile digital wallets, or similar technology will not qualify in a rewards category if the technology is not set up to process the purchase in that rewards category. For more information, see the FAQs at DisneyRewards.com/PremierEarnFAQ. (“Qualifying Purchases” means the amount of your retail purchases of goods and services minus returns or refunds that qualify for Disney Rewards Dollars in a billing cycle and do not include balance transfers, cash advances and other cash-like transactions, travelers checks, foreign currency, money orders, wire transfers, lottery tickets, casino gaming chips, race track wagers or similar betting transactions, any checks that access your Card Account, interest, unauthorized or fraudulent charges, or fees of any kind, including an annual fee, if applicable.)
