"A Celtic Christmas" is coming soon, but we'd like to know when we should start streaming our popular Christmas show?

Some time after Thanksgiving please.

Mix some Christmas music with regular music between Thanksgiving and December 1st. Then start 24 hour Christmas music.

I would mix untill the 15th. I don't want to be overloaded with it since most local stations here will start playing it the day after thanksgiving.

Please start a mix after thanksgiving then around the 10 of dec your christmas show . We are already getting bombed here in the stores .This takes the fun out of the season

After Thanksgiving or December 1st, either one would be fine. Love the Christmas theme!

Did you know that there's an all Christmas radio station n Live 365? Seems strange to hear "Jingle Bells" in July, but I guess there are folks who enjoy it!

December 1st would be good.

i just think there was to much last year and i love Christmas... but i think even during the season you could have a heavy mix but get some other stuff in there too ...
just my wee opinion... note.gif

feel the love... smile.gif

I'm a freak, I start getting Christmassy about now. Probably because the retail world makes me do it. tongue.gif

Speaking of, it's time for me to get off here and keep listing stuff in the store. Yay!

Seriously though, I do like it early, but I'd go light (very light) until Thanksgiving, then introduce more into the playlist. Go fulltime about the 15th.

I think December 1st would be soon enough. I already saw Christmas items for sale in the stores. In my opinion is way to early.

I know I'm a bit late but December 1st is good enough.In shopping malls they already started in the middle of october...that's nuts because you get to Christmas and you're fed up with it.

Our local KMart had Christmas stuff at the same time they put out the Holloween stuff.

Thanks for everyones feedback on the Christmas programming.

Last year we started around the 15th of November and because of your feedback we have held off up until now. Starting in the evening of November 21st we shall switch Highlander Radio to an all Christmas broadcast.

"A Celtic Christmas" has been so popular in the past few years that our listener numbers increase about 35% during the holiday season. So, while I know some people are going to miss the Highlander Radio format for a month, we do bring in alot of new listeners during this time of the year.

Consider too that we now have other listening options available: Celt-Rock-Radio, Celtic Moon and BlueGrass Hills.

Excited to start our Christmas programming as we really do have a unique and rich collection of Scottish, Irish and Celtic music for the season.

Looking forward to it all, Paul! Let the holiday fun begin!!
