Christmas is a magical time, particularly when it comes to iconic video content. From Home Alone and Die Hard, through to the Coca-Cola trucks and Logan Paul’s Santa Diss Track, it truly is the most wonderful time of the year for sparking inspiration in creators.
Finding the right Christmas soundtrack can give your videos a light dusting of festive joy, and you don’t even need to bring Michael Bublé out of hibernation to find a huge variety of music to choose from. But sifting through endless websites to find the perfect track can be time-consuming.
And while All I Want For Christmas Is You would instantly give your video a festive feel, no-one wants to get on the wrong side of Mariah Carey and her copyright lawyers! You’ll want to find a copyright-free track for your video so you don’t run the risk of Content ID issues.
At Uppbeat, we’ve got into the spirit of the season by gifting you a selection box of festive playlists, featuring the best royalty-free Christmas music and sound effects in the world. From well-loved classics to modern takes on festive sounds, you can find the perfect soundtrack for your Christmas content right here.
