At Pandora, we’re always looking for new ways to connect you with the music you love, no matter where you are or how you’re tuning in. The holidays are no different– we have exactly what you need to turn the sound on and volume up during every moment this season, whether you’re jingle bell rockin’ with friends or family, schlepping through airport security to make it to grandmother’s house, working off all of those milk and cookies, or getting cozy with bae by the fire.
Check out some of our favorite playlists that will be the ultimate soundtrack to your holiday season:
- Deal with the anxiety of flying = What’s scarier than the fear of flying? Flying to see family. Laugh it off with holiday comedy that will make even your relatives seem normal.
- Eggnog and When Are You Getting Married? = This mix of contemporary and classic holiday music will ease the blow of explaining how Bumble works to Aunt Carol.
