Comcast is Home for the Holidays

Whether you’re staying home or traveling over the river and through the woods for the holidays, Comcast offers ways for you to stay entertained, connected and safe this holiday season.

Celebrating the season at home? For instant ambience for your holiday get together, tune into the ever-popular Yule Log on Xfinity On Demand (under Music), Xfinity.com/TV or on the Xfinity TV Go app for a screensaver featuring a crackling fire and festive tunes.

When you’re ready to settle in for the night, stay in the spirit with a new or classic holiday film like “Bad Santa,” “White Christmas” or “Miracle on 34th Street” found On Demand under Movie Collections. To find out where and when you can watch your favorite holiday TV specials and movies, check out www.xfinitytv.com/microsites/holidays.

You can also treat the family to an early gift by purchasing “Despicable Me 2” to own, right on your television! Check out the full list of movies you can buy now through Xfinity On Demand under Movies/Movies to Own.

If holiday travel is in the plan, remember to bring along your Comcast ID to get access to entertainment and WiFi on the go. Then, download the Xfinity TV Go app that lets customers live stream 35 networks, watch thousands of movies and TV shows On Demand and even download directly to mobile devices to watch even when there might not be an Internet connection.

To get online when you’re out, you can also use the Xfinity WiFi app on your Android or iOS device to find the closest hotspot. You can log on to hotspots with your Comcast ID and do some last-minute gift shopping, upload photo and video of your holiday activities or check your flight status.

And finally, you can keep tabs on your home while traveling with Comcast’s security and automation service, Xfinity Home, which offers the ability to watch live streaming video of your home on a computer or a smartphone, remotely manage lights and thermostat, and more. You can even use it to turn your Christmas tree lights on or off from your mobile device – what a party trick!

Whether you’re getting cozy on the couch at home with a holiday movie On Demand, watching your favorite content on-the-go with our Xfinity TV Go app, getting online with one of our Xfinity WiFi hotspots, or checking in on your home while away with Xfinity Home, we wish our customers very happy holidays.
