‘Tis the season for hard-hitting action on the gridiron! The NFL has two marquee games on Christmas Day, Wednesday, Dec. 25, featuring four AFC powerhouses, and a pair of powerhouse divas.
For the first game, the Kansas City Chiefs (14-1) take on the Pittsburgh Steelers (10-5) at Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with the reigning Queen of Christmas Mariah Carey opening the show. And for the second game, the Baltimore Ravens (10-5) battle the Houston Texans (9-6) at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas, with a much-anticipated halftime show from Beyoncé.
When Does NFL on Christmas Day Start?
The Chiefs vs. Steelers game broadcasts live, with kick-off at 1 p.m. ET/10 a.m. PT, while Ravens vs. Texans starts at 4:30 p.m. ET/1:30 p.m. PT.
Coverage with a pre-game show for NFL on Christmas Day has a start time of 11 a.m. ET/8 a.m. PT.
How to Watch NFL on Christmas Day Online
Both games can be found on Netflix. This is the first time the streaming service hosts live NFL games and the only way to watch the NFL on Christmas Day is with a subscription to Netflix. The games aren’t broadcasting nationally on NBC, CBS, Fox, ABC, ESPN or NFL Network.
However, if you live in the metro areas of Kansas City, Pittsburgh, Baltimore, or Houston, the games air on your local CBS affiliate — or Paramount+ for subscribers only. Sign up for a seven-day free trial to watch NFL on Christmas Day for free, if you live in the TV markets of the NFL teams playing on Wednesday, Dec. 25.
Moreover, you can also watch NFL on Christmas Day games on NFL+ starting at $6.99 per month month for the standard subscription, or $14.99 per month for NLF+ Premium.
With NFL+, fans can watch or listen to games live and on-demand, plus enjoy recaps and more.
How to Stream NFL on Christmas Day on Netflix for Free
Want to stream the NFL on Christmas Day online for free? While Netflix doesn’t offer a free trial to watch the games, you can still livestream it for free when you sign up for Verizon.
Sign up for Verizon and get free Netflix and Max for an entire year, as a benefit with the service. Once the 12 months is finished, you can either cancel, or keep the commercial-supported versions of both streaming services for just $10 per month altogether. That’s an over 40% discount on Netflix and Max.
Meanwhile, T-Mobile offers Netflix for free when you sign up for most of the Go5G plans — either the Go5G Next, Go5G Plus or Magenta Max plans.
Who Is Performing During NFL on Christmas Day Halftime Shows
During the double-header, there’s a number of performances throughout the NFL on Christmas Day. The day of NFL games starts with Mariah Carey performing “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” while the Voices of Service quartet performs the National Anthem before the Chiefs vs. Steelers game.
Additionally, pop group Pentatonix sings the national anthem before the Ravens vs. Texans game, while Grammy Award-winning recording artist Beyoncé performs during the game’s halftime show.
While she’s not scheduled to perform, it’s likely that Taylor Swift could make an appearance at the Chiefs vs. Steelers game since she’s dating star tight end Travis Kelce.

Want to attend the Christmas game in person? There are still last-minute tickets to the NFL games available via Vivid Seats (get $20 off purchases of $200 and over with code BB2024) and StubHub. Prices vary depending on the city and seats available.
