The 25 Days of Christmas (formerly known as ABC Family's 25 Days of Christmas from 2001 to 2015 and currently Freeform's 25 Days of Christmas since 2016) is an annual programming block that has aired on the Freeform cable channel and its predecessors since 1996.
Description[]
The programming block is shown every year from December 1st to December 25th, and features classic holiday programming, as well as new Christmas-themed television movies, and occasionally new Christmas-themed episodes of the networks' original series. Since 2006, the block has also aired general-interest family movies such as the Harry Potter films, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, and various Walt Disney Animation Studios and Pixar films. A companion block titled Kickoff to Christmas (formerly Countdown to 25 Days of Christmas) has also aired on Freeform every November since 2007.

The event was previously titled Family Channel's 25 Days of Christmas in 1996 and 1997, and later Fox Family's 25 Days of Christmas from 1998 to 2000.
