The holiday season just wouldn’t be the same without Christmas music playing in the background. If you own a Roku device, you have easy access to festive tunes to set the mood. In this guide, I’ll walk you through how to find and activate the Christmas Music Channel on Roku.
What is the Christmas Music Channel?
The Christmas Music Channel on Roku offers unlimited holiday music streaming. You’ll hear all of your favorite Christmas songs and classics, from timeless instrumentals like “Silent Night” to cheery tunes like “Jingle Bell Rock.”
It’s completely free to add and doesn’t require a subscription. You can just turn it on and let the festive melodies play for ambience.

Other Ways to Listen to Holiday Tunes
The Christmas Music Channel isn’t the only way to stream holiday music on a Roku device. Here are a couple other options to consider:
- Pandora – This streaming music service allows you to create customized holiday stations. Browse the Holidays mood under Moods and Activities to find options like Christmas traditional, country Christmas, holiday piano, and more.
- iHeartRadio – From iHeartRadio, choose from stations like iHeartChristmas, iHeartChristmas Classics, iHeartChristmas Country and other channels focused specifically on festive tunes.
So cozy up with some hot cocoa and let your Roku device provide the soundtrack for the season. Listening is as easy as adding the Christmas Music Channel or Pandora/iHeartRadio and selecting your station of choice.
Have a happy and healthy holiday season!
