Three onscreen Hallmark Channel duos will meet up at Boston’s historic Fenway Park on July 1, 2025, to launch the network’s 13th annual Christmas in July.
As EntertainmentNow previously reported, the Red Sox announced on May 15 that they were teaming up with the cable network for a holiday-themed night at the team’s July 1 home game against the Cincinnati Reds. On June 22, longtime Hallmark star Taylor Cole revealed via social media that she and several other fan-favorites will be on-hand to have a ball with fans on the special night.
Nikki DeLoach & Andrew Walker Among Hallmark Channel Duos at Red Sox Game
In Cole’s post, she revealed that she’ll attend the July 1 festivities with her pal Benjamin Ayres, with whom she starred in 2022’s “Long Lost Christmas,” as well as “Curious Caterer” duo Nikki DeLoach and Andrew Walker. Ginna Claire Mason will be there, too, to sing the national anthem, and Wes Brown — Mason’s co-star in the upcoming holiday movie “Newport Christmas” — will throw out the first pitch.
DeLoach, Walker, and Ayres are all part of the “Christmas at Sea” docuseries that will premiere as part of Hallmark’s Christmas in July programming, which Red Sox fans will get a sneak peek of at the game, Cole said in her post.
The team’s website invites Hallmarkies to “jingle all the way to Fa-la-la-Fenway for a day of major league merriment.” Fans are encouraged to dress up “like a happy holiday Hallmark movie,” and take photos in a “winter wonderland” area set up at the stadium.
Fans who purchase tickets to the game here, ranging in cost from $38 to $127, will receive an “exclusive, holiday-themed Red Sox and Hallmark Channel hat.” A limited VIP package is also available, which comes with the hat and a “festive replica jersey.” The cost for the VIP packages ranges from $67 to $152, but the team said the packages are “as rare as snow in July.”
Christmas in July Will Feature 4 Movie Premieres & 2 Holiday Series
As part of its 2025 Christmas in July programming, each Saturday of the month, Hallmark Channel will premiere one of its four “Unwrapping Christmas” movies, which were only available to stream on Hallmark+ in late 2024. The premieres will air as follows:
- JULY 5 at 8 p.m. Central: “Unwrapping Christmas: Tina’s Miracle” starring Natalie Hall and Alec Santos.
- JULY 12 at 8 p.m. Central: “Unwrapping Christmas: Mia’s Prince” starring Kathryn Davis and Nathan Witte.
- JULY 19 at 8 p.m. Central: “Unwrapping Christmas: Lily’s Destiny” starring Ashley Newbrough and Torrance Coombs.
- JULY 26 at 8 p.m. Central: “Unwrapping Christmas: Olivia’s Reunion” starring Cindy Busby and Jake Epstein.
Hallmark Channel will also premiere two series. On July 6, according to Hallmark’s website, the first two episodes of Hallmark’s star-studded series “Holidazed,” which premiered on Hallmark+ in 2024, will premiere on Hallmark Channel. Each Sunday night in July, two more new episodes will air at 8 p.m. and 9 p.m. Eastern time.
On July 7, Hallmark Channel will premiere “Christmas at Sea,” a brand-new unscripted series filmed aboard one of Hallmark’s first-ever Christmas Cruises last November. Variety reported in May 2024 that a film crew would be on the second cruise to the Bahamas, which sailed from November 17-21, to capture special moments with Hallmark superfans. The four-episode series is slated to air each Monday night in July at 8 p.m. Eastern time.
