The gist: A Danish Christmas premieres Sunday, Nov. 1, at 8/7c on Hallmark Channel. Emilie Ullerup plays Marie, a hotel tech executive back in Copenhagen for the holidays, and Corey Sevier plays Ryan, the guest she mistakes for a travel writer. Four encores are already on the network's list, and the table above has each one.
It closes out the third weekend of Countdown to Christmas 2026, after Who's Coming for Christmas? on Friday and Adopting St. Nick on Saturday. By the calendar it's also the season's first November premiere.
Who stars in A Danish Christmas?
Two names. Hallmark's cast page lists Ullerup and Sevier and nobody else, so Marie's mother and the second Ryan Miller have no actors attached here yet.
| Actor | Role | You may know them from |
|---|---|---|
| Emilie Ullerup | Marie | Chesapeake Shores (Bree O'Brien); Sanctuary; jPod; Arctic Air (Astrid); Signed, Sealed, Delivered |
| Corey Sevier | Ryan Miller | Lassie (Timmy); Little Men; North Shore; Cedar Cove (Seth Gunderson); Immortals (Apollo) |
Here's the detail we like: Ullerup was born in Copenhagen. Her network bio says she left Denmark for Vancouver to attend the Vancouver Film School, then landed jPod and Sanctuary in the same year. So a Danish-born actor is playing a woman who flies home to Denmark for Christmas.
Sevier is Canadian and, per his Hallmark bio, has been acting since he was seven. He was Timmy in the 1990s Lassie series before North Shore on Fox and a recurring part on Cedar Cove. The same bio credits him as director of two of his own TV movies, Heart of the Holidays and It Takes a Christmas Village.
Who directed and wrote this one? Hallmark's pages don't name anyone, and neither does TVLine's season list. We're leaving that blank instead of guessing.
What is A Danish Christmas about?
Marie lives in Chicago and works in hotel technology. She comes home to Copenhagen for the holidays and starts pitching in at the Andersen Inn, which her family runs.
Then a guest named Ryan Miller checks in, and Marie assumes he's the travel writer of the same name. He expects the inn's Christmas tour. The inn hasn't run that tour since Marie's father died, so she builds one from scratch.
The stakes go up when her mother says she plans to sell after New Year's. Marie figures a glowing write-up could change her mind. That's as far as we'll retell the network's synopsis, which also promises hygge at the inn and a few festive fiascos around town.
When does A Danish Christmas air again, and where can you stream it?
Every date in the table at the top comes from the showtimes list on Hallmark Channel's page for the movie, checked Friday, Oct. 9, at 10:12 a.m. ET. The network's day-by-day grid only reached Oct. 31 when we looked, so we couldn't cross-check the November slots there. They may still move.
A clock note for premiere day: U.S. daylight saving time ends at 2 a.m. on Sunday, Nov. 1. So the 8 p.m. premiere runs on standard time, while Saturday's movie the night before is still on daylight time.
The movie page carries the tag "Streaming Next Day on Hallmark+," which points to Monday, Nov. 2. Hallmark+ is on-demand and has no live feed of the channel. Watching the premiere as it airs takes Hallmark Channel through cable, satellite or a live TV package that includes it.
There's a sneak-peek scene on the movie page already, if you'd like a look before November.
Where was A Danish Christmas filmed?
Hallmark hasn't said where it was filmed. The story is set in Copenhagen, and that's the only place the synopsis names. We found no network statement or local report on shooting locations as of Friday, Oct. 9, so we won't assume the setting and the set are the same city.
