Dear Fellow Songwriters, Podcasters & Producers,
We would love to personally invite you to be part of something special.
As America celebrates its 250th Anniversary, 25 Songs of Christmas is launching the Holiday Road Playlist Songwriting Contest 2026, a national search for original Christmas songs celebrating the people, places, traditions, and stories that make Christmas in America unforgettable.
We are inviting songwriters and holiday music creators from across the country to share their original Christmas songs.
Selected finalists will receive:
🎄 National recognition as one of 25 finalists
📺 Featured in the Holiday Road Playlist web series
📺 Television exposure through Houston Media Source and APR TV
💿 Consideration for the 2027 Holiday Road Playlist Compilation Album
©️ Full ownership of their music remains with the songwriter
We believe your voice and creativity represent the kind of storytelling this project celebrates.
Whether you submit an original song or simply share this opportunity with your songwriting community, we would be honored to have you join us in creating America’s Christmas soundtrack.
The journey begins with one song.
Thank you for helping us celebrate Christmas through music.
THE DEADLINE IS OCTOBER 15th.
Warmly,
