HBO Max Greenlights 12 Dates of Christmas

HBO Max has greenlit its latest unscripted series, 12 Dates of Christmas, a holiday-inspired dating series.

The show, set to debut next year, will follow a cast of singles as they step into a real-life romantic comedy full of cozy sweaters, fireside cuddles and mistletoe kisses, all arranged to help these souls find love in time for the holidays. The romantic journey begins at a picturesque Christmas castle, where the prospective couples will enjoy festive holiday traditions like ice skating and sleigh rides.

12 Dates of Christmas is produced by Objective Media Group America, an All3Media America company with Jilly Pearce and Layla Smith serving as executive producers. The show was created by Michael Beilinson.

“The holidays can be a magical time for budding relationships and where better to find your perfect match than in this real-life fairytale castle in the snow? Viewers can grab some hot cocoa, watch the romance unfold and be charmed right along with these hopeless romantics as they search for a Christmas miracle—true love,” said Jennifer O’Connell, executive VP of original non-fiction and kids programming at HBO Max.

“12 Dates of Christmas is inspired by our love of Christmas rom coms past and present. It’s a romantic, fun and feel good dating show with a difference, and has the perfect home with HBO Max,” said Objective Media Group Executive VP Jilly Pearce.
