Is .christmas right for your idea?
Plan the quiet months
Decide what people should see outside the season: next opening dates, contact details or an invitation to return. Avoid leaving expired offers as if they were current.
Compare the yearly commitment
A seasonal website still has an annual domain cost. Compare the full renewal price with a broader events or shopping ending before choosing.

Questions about .christmas domains
Can I keep a .christmas website online all year?
Yes. The ending does not restrict when the website operates. Keep seasonal dates and availability clear.
Which .christmas registration periods can I choose?
Standard .christmas registrations are available for 1, 2, 3, 5 and 10 years. Term prices are full upfront charges. Confirm your term and renewal price at order review.
Can I use .christmas with my existing website?
Yes, if your website provider supports a custom domain. Follow its DNS connection instructions. Registration and any paid website service are separate.
What happens after I find a domain?
Add one or more available names to your basket, then continue to registration. Enter the owner details and review the registration term and total before payment. Availability is provisional until the registrar confirms registration.
Will UKC charge me automatically at renewal?
No. UKC sends renewal reminders and an invoice. You need to pay the invoice to renew; UKC does not automatically charge you. Keep your contact details current so you receive reminders.
