As summer vacations draw to a close, Halloween preparations are underway, yet TF1 has already shifted its focus to the holiday season. The French network has unveiled its first lineup of Christmas movies set to air this year, indicating that the festive season is starting earlier than ever.
Christmas Movies Starting in October on TF1
TF1 recently announced via social media the kickoff of its Christmas movie season, beginning remarkably early this year on October 13 at 2:25 PM. Traditionally, the network would start airing such films after Halloween, but this year’s schedule allows viewers to enjoy festive films more than two weeks in advance. This change responds to an increasing audience demand, as viewers are eager to dive into the holiday spirit sooner each year.

Featured Christmas Movies on TF1 for 2025
Starting October 13, 2025, at 2:25 PM, viewers can enjoy the first Christmas film of the season: The Christmas Treasure, starring Lacey Chabert. The plot promises an exciting afternoon:
On the eve of Christmas vacation, archaeologist Stefanie Baxter embarks on an expedition to Iceland in search of the legendary Elf treasure, hoping to protect it by placing it in a museum. With the help of her ex-husband, a translator specializing in dead languages, and her friend Oli, a pilot who has accompanied her on many adventures, she embarks on a treasure hunt to uncover 13 clues leading to priceless riches. However, others are also seeking this treasure for less noble purposes, and riches are not always what they seem.
TF1 has also released the lineup for subsequent days:
– October 14: The Great Christmas Race
– October 15: Christmas Step-Mothers
– October 16: The Christmas Guests
– October 17: A Victory for Christmas
All these films are exclusives and will be available for streaming on TF1+.
