CTV / OTT Market: Pluto TV Launches Christmas-in-July Hub and 8 Channels
Pluto TV launched a dedicated "Christmas in July" hub on July 1, 2026, featuring live linear-style channels and on-demand holiday movies available through July 31. The streamer added eight themed live channels — including Pluto TV Christmas in July, Pluto TV Mistletoe, BET Holiday Movies, Festive Fireplace, Cine navideño en julio (En Español), Places & Spaces, Stingray Holidayscapes and Vevo Holiday — and more than 40 seasonal titles to its on-demand library. The hub offers features such as a "Watch From Start" button on live guide streams and includes classic, family, comedy and romance holiday films and BET originals. The seasonal lineup is free on Pluto TV for the month of July, creating additional FAST/CTV inventory and audience opportunities for advertisers during the promotion.
Seasonal content and new live FAST channels expand Pluto TV's CTV/OTT inventory and short-term ad opportunities, but this is a promotional/content update rather than an industry-shifting technical or policy event.
