Hallmark+ Expands Christmas Movies Library, Offers Next-Day Streaming in 2025
Hallmark+ has announced significant changes to its streaming strategy, just three months after its initial launch. Initially designed to offer content distinct from the Hallmark Channel and Hallmark Mystery debuts, the platform will now stream all new original movie premieres from these channels the day after they air, starting in 2025.
This shift means that Hallmark+ subscribers will have access to a wealth of holiday movies, including all 2024 holiday content from Hallmark’s linear networks. This move comes amid a series of strategic changes within Hallmark Media, reflecting the company’s responsiveness to viewer feedback and market trends.

Strategic Shifts in Hallmark Media
Hallmark Media has been making several strategic changes in recent months, reflecting its commitment to adapting to viewer preferences and the evolving media landscape. One notable change is the decision to stream all new Hallmark Channel and Hallmark Mystery original movies on Hallmark+ the day after their linear debut, starting in 2025.
Changes to “The Way Home”
In November, Hallmark Media announced that the third season of *The Way Home* would be available exclusively on Hallmark+. However, after considering fan feedback, the company decided to revert to airing the show on its linear network, with episodes available for streaming the following day on Hallmark+.
Countdown to Christmas
Hallmark’s popular *Countdown to Christmas* event, traditionally a linear experience, will now see its movies available on Hallmark+ shortly after airing. This change aligns with Hallmark Media’s new strategy to provide a seamless viewing experience across its platforms.
Hallmark+ Membership Plans
Hallmark+ offers two membership plans to cater to different viewing preferences. Subscribers can choose between a monthly plan at $7.99 or an annual plan at $79.99. Both plans provide access to the extensive library of Hallmark original movies and series, including the newly added holiday content.
