Hallmark Recycles Hallmark+ Movies & Series For Christmas In July
Hallmark has released the first video for the 2025 Christmas In July. They are airing the four Unwrapping Christmas movies, and the Christmas mini series Holidazed, along with the long-awaited Hallmark Cruise documentary.
However, those fans who subscribe to the streaming app will find that the feel-good network has recycled all the movies and the network’s first holiday series. This is a bit like being regifted.
Here are the first details of this annual summer holiday event.
Hallmark’s Christmas In July Is Regifted 2024 Streaming Content
Hallmark has released the 2025 Christmas In July preview video. This summer, the network will air all four Unwrapping Christmas movies and the fabulous mini-series Holidazed. But the network has not yet released the official schedule.
However, if you are subscribed to Hallmark+, this like getting a regifted present. These movies and series all premiered at the end of 2024, as part of the streamer’s first holiday content.
On the one hand, this is not unexpected. When they launched the rebranded streamer, the network promised that they would air the original streaming content six to nine months later. However, by airing all movies and series that have already premiered on H+, those subscribers are forgotten. These superfans who bought subscriptions are negated because the network is not airing even one new holiday movie in July.
Last summer, the network premiered extended cuts of Three Wise Men And A Baby, and Rescuing Christmas. However, they also premiered two new movies, A Very Vermont Christmas, and Falling Like Snowflakes.
The only new content that H+ subscribers have not seen is the long-awaited documentary on the first Hallmark Cruise.

Lastly, Unwrapping Christmas: Olivia’s Reunion stars Cindy Busby and Jake Epstein. “Olivia, a creative gift-wrapping whiz, is determined to make it back home in time for the Christmas gala after getting snowed in with her ex while delivering Christmas gifts.”
Holidazed Is Hallmark’s First Christmas Series
The eight-episode Holidazed will be part of the 2025 Christmas In July programming. This follows six different families on a Portland cu du sac. This series tells the stories of how they navigate the holidays. This series is funny, emotional, and full of heart.
The first and last episodes include the entire ensemble cast. Then, each of the remaining six episodes focuses on one family.
Christmas In July fans, are you disappointed that Hallmark recycled streaming movies and series instead of premiering at least one new holiday movie?
