disney+ holiday movies roku

Noelle – Kris Kringle's daughter is full of Christmas spirit and holiday fun, but wishes she could do something "important" like her beloved brother Nick, who will take over from their father this Christmas. When Nick is about to crumble like a gingerbread cookie from all the pressure, Noelle suggests he take a break and get away…but when he doesn't return, Noelle must find her brother and bring him back in time to save Christmas.

Home Alone – When Kevin McCallister is left behind while his family dashes off on a Christmas trip, he is left to defend his family's home from two bumbling burglars until the relatives return.

Home Alone 2: Lost in New York – Kevin McCallister is home alone in New York City, but he won&'t be alone for long because the notorious Wet Bandits, Harry and Marv, are also in the Big Apple.

Home Alone 3 – A gang of criminals come up against 8 year-old Alex Pruitt, who is home alone with the chicken pox.

The Santa Clause – On Christmas Eve, divorced dad Scott Calvin and his son discover Santa Claus has fallen off their roof. When Scott takes the reins of the magical sleigh, he finds he is now the new Santa, and must convince a world of disbelievers, including himself.

The Santa Clause 2 – Tim Allen returns in this heartwarming holiday sequel as Scott Calvin, who has been a very successful and happy Santa for eight years. But now he faces a new challenge: If he doesn’t get married by Christmas Eve, he’ll stop being Santa forever.

The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause – Scott Calvin invites his in-laws to his yuletide festivities, but the holidays take a chaotic turn when Jack Frost puts the big freeze on Christmas. Now, unless Scott can get his job back, it’s going to be a very glacial “Frostmas” all around the world.

Mickey's Once Upon a Christmas – Join Mickey, Minnie and their friends for hilarious and heartwarming stories of their most memorable Christmases together. Experience a merry collection of adventures and magical Christmas songs celebrating the joys of the holiday season.

Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas – Santa Claus joins Mickey, Minnie and all their pals in an original movie about discovering the true joys of Christmas.

Mickey's Christmas Carol – An all-time Christmas classic gets a fun Disney twist as greedy Scrooge learns to embrace the spirit of the season.

The Muppets Christmas Carol – The Muppets’ rendition of Charles Dickens’ classic tale puts a unique twist on that fateful Christmas Eve, when Scrooge is visited by the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future. Together with kind, humble Bob Cratchit (Kermit the Frog) and his family, the Spirits open Scrooge’s eyes — and his heart — to the true meaning of Christmas.

Santa Paws 2: The Santa Pups – When holiday spirit mysteriously begins to disappear, the Santa Pups race to save Christmas

Beauty and the Beast: Enchanted Christmas – Celebrate the holidays with this film inspired by Disney’s classic. Mrs. Potts recounts another “tale as old as time” about a Christmas that almost wasn’t, thanks to scheming composer Forte, who is determined to keep Belle and Beast apart forever.

I'll Be Home for Christmas – Self-centered college student Jake is in a rush to get home for the holidays. But it isn’t because he’s excited to share Christmas with his family—it’s because he’ll be rewarded with his dad’s vintage car if he makes it on time. Desperate to claim his gift, he flies, crawls and even sleighs his way east…and along the way, he might even learn the true meaning of Christmas.

Good Luck Charlie, It's Christmas! – The Duncans get separated en route to visit Amy’s parents for Christmas. From hitchhiking and alien abductions to paintball and video games, the family will need a Christmas miracle to reunite in Palm Springs in time for the holiday. Along the way, they’ll learn that quick thinking and kind gestures will pave the way to their Christmas celebration.

One Magic Christmas – A young mother rediscovers the joy and beauty of Christmas thanks to the unshakable faith of her six-year-old daughter, Abbie, and Gideon, her very own guardian angel.

The Ultimate Christmas Present – When 13-year-old Allie Thompson and her best friend Sam happen upon a weather-making machine discarded by none other than Santa Claus, they use it to cause a snow day in Los Angeles. But when the machine gets out of hand, it threatens to ruin Christmas.

'Twas the Night – When Santa Claus is accidentally knocked out on Christmas Eve, Danny and his con-artist uncle take it upon themselves to deliver the gifts.

The Christmas Star – Counterfeiter Horace McNickle escapes prison through his extraordinary likeness to St. Nick. Desperate to recover loot from an earlier caper, McNickle enlists the help of two neighborhood kids who really believe he is Santa.

Full Court Miracle – When a group of young Jewish basketballers find their team in a slump, they call upon former college basketball star Lamont Carr to help. As the boys go between the court and the classroom, they begin drawing parallels to Lamont’s background and the Chanukah story of Judah. Believing that they have some heavenly help on their side, the team must prepare to be the David in a tournament of Goliaths.

Pluto's Christmas Tree – The tree that Mickey and Pluto chop down to bring home for Christmas is the tree that Chip ‘n Dale live in. This program is presented as originally created. It may contain outdated cultural depictions.

12 Dates of Christmas – Setup on a blind date on Christmas Eve, a woman must relive the date over and over again until she sets things right.

The Nightmare Before Christmas – Bored with the same old scare-and-scream routine, Pumpkin King Jack Skellington longs to spread the joy of Christmas. But his merry mission puts Santa in jeopardy and creates a nightmare for good little boys and girls everywhere.

Richie Rich's Christmas Wish – A wishing machine transports Richie Rich to an alternate universe where his mischievous cousin Reggie Van Dough is the master of the house.
