M&M’s is bringing a little extra nostalgia to the candy aisle this holiday season with a new collection inspired by three beloved Christmas movies.
The candy brand has teamed up with Warner Bros. Global Consumer Products to launch a limited-edition Holiday Blend Collection featuring packaging inspired by Elf, A Christmas Story and National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation.
And while the candy inside the bags is the familiar red-and-green M&M’s Holiday Blend, the packaging is getting a festive movie makeover.
According to a Nov. 2 announcement from Mars, the collection features six limited-edition package designs inspired by memorable characters and moments from the films, including Buddy the Elf, Ralphie and Clark Griswold.
The collection includes both milk chocolate and peanut M&M’s varieties, with the holiday-themed bags available now at retailers nationwide while supplies last.
“One of the greatest joys of the holidays is making memories together, and few traditions bring people together like enjoying our M&M’S Holiday Blend candies and revisiting the holiday movies we love,” said Allison Miazga-Bedrick, vice president of marketing for the seasonal portfolio at Mars Snacking, in the announcement.
And there’s an extra incentive for fans who want to stock up on the festive candy.
How to Get a Holiday Movie With M&M’s
From Nov. 1 through Dec. 31, shoppers who purchase three participating M&M’s Holiday Blend packs in a single transaction can receive a promotional code to purchase a digital copy of one of the three featured Christmas movies through Fandango Stream.
To claim the reward, customers must upload a photo of their receipt at activaterewards.com/mmsholiday. Once the receipt is approved, they’ll receive a Fandango Stream promotional code and can choose from Elf, A Christmas Story or National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation.
A free Fandango account is required, but no subscription is necessary. The selected movie can be streamed or downloaded through supported devices.
The offer is limited to one reward per receipt submission, with a maximum of three codes per household. Codes must be redeemed by Jan. 31, 2027, and additional taxes may apply. The promotion is available to U.S. residents while supplies last.
The limited-edition Holiday Blend collection will be available at participating retailers nationwide, with pricing and package availability varying by store.
Whether you’re planning a Christmas movie marathon or just want to add a little nostalgia to your holiday candy bowl, the new M&M’s collection brings three familiar holiday favorites together in one festive celebration.
