Newfoundland & Labrador
Christmas Music
Advent Calendar
2025 Edition
Discover a hand-picked collection of the best Newfoundland & Labrador Christmas music, featuring some of the province’s most talented artists, bands, and voices. From traditional folk and contemporary pop to choral, classical, indie, and rock, this growing playlist celebrates the rich musical culture of our province and the one-of-a-kind feeling of Christmas in Newfoundland & Labrador.
This Advent Calendar is part of the Product of Newfoundland blog — a celebration of our stories, history, traditions, and the strange and wonderful things that make this place what it is. If you’re in the mood for Newfoundland Christmas content, you’ll also find posts on old-time customs, holiday legends, local history, mummering, ghost stories, and the way the season has been celebrated across outports and communities for generations. Feel free to wander the blog and explore — there’s lots to discover.
Beginning December 1st, I’ll be sharing a new holiday song or album every single day, right up to Christmas Eve. Each selection comes with a bit of background, a story, or a reason it deserves a spot in the season. Whether you're looking for nostalgic classics, modern releases, or hidden treasures you’ve never heard before, this Advent Calendar is a daily festive treat — and one that lasts a lot longer than a cardboard calendar with stale chocolate.
Follow along throughout December for the ultimate soundtrack to your Newfoundland & Labrador Christmas — and discover just how big, bold, and beautifully varied our holiday music truly is.
1 day until Christmas… Alan Doyle, Bryan Adams and friends make Ron Hynes modern day classic shine.
