As it did with ‘A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving‘ a few weeks ago, Apple is streaming ‘A Charlie Brown Christmas‘ for free on Apple TV this Saturday (13) and Sunday (14). Here’s how to watch.
Finding the ‘perfect’ tree
Ever since Apple, Peanuts Worldwide, and WildBrain struck a partnership to have Apple TV be “the exclusive streaming home for Snoopy, Charlie Brown and the gang until 2030,” the company has been making the franchise’s holiday specials available to watch for free every year.
Last month, ‘A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving‘ streamed on Apple TV with no subscription required during the weekend preceding Thanksgiving. This weekend, it’s 1965’s A Charlie Brown Christmas’s turn.

This means that even if you’re not a subscriber, you can watch the 1965 Christmas classic, as long as you have an Apple Account to log into the Apple TV app.
Here’s Apple’s official synopsis:
Feeling down about the commercialism of Christmas, Charlie Brown becomes the director of the gang’s holiday play. Can he overcome his friends’ preference for dancing over acting, find the “perfect” tree, and discover the true meaning of Christmas?
