Watch ‘A Charlie Brown Christmas’ for Free: Streaming Details and Schedule

Feeling that holiday spirit this year has been a bit tough, but one guaranteed way to bring some Christmas magic into your home is by watching “A Charlie Brown Christmas.” This classic Peanuts special first aired in 1965 and has been a beloved tradition ever since.

If you’re unfamiliar, the show follows Charlie Brown as he grapples with the commercialization of Christmas and searches for the true meaning of the holiday. It’s got everything from a holiday play rehearsal to a heartwarming dance scene, all set to the beautiful soundtrack by Vince Guaraldi.

Unfortunately, you won’t find “A Charlie Brown Christmas” on traditional TV this year. Apple TV+ acquired the rights to the Peanuts specials in 2020, so the only place to stream it is on their platform. Don’t worry though, if you’re not an Apple TV+ member, you’ll still be able to watch for free on Sunday, Dec. 15.

If you’re interested in checking out Apple TV+, memberships start at $9.99 a month and new users can even sign up for a seven-day free trial to test it out. But don’t fret if you’re not looking for another subscription service, you’ll still have the chance to enjoy “A Charlie Brown Christmas” for free this holiday season. So mark your calendars and get ready to bask in the festive glow of this timeless classic.
