Also on the chart, new projects from Brad Paisley, Trisha Yearwood and Herb Alpert all debut.
The Top Holiday Albums chart ranks the 50 most popular seasonal albums of the week in the U.S. based on multi-metric consumption as measured in equivalent album units. Units comprise album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). Each units equals one album sales, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album. The Top Holiday Albums chart will continue to be published on a weekly basis through early January of 2026, when it will jingle away until the next holiday season. (The chart generally returns to Billboard’s weekly chart menu every October.)
Paisley’s Snow Globe Town debuts on the list at No. 15, marking his second charting project on the tally. He previously visited the chart with the 2006 release Brad Paisley Christmas, which peaked at No. 2 in January 2007. Snow Globe Town includes eight newly-penned songs and a selection of classic holiday favorites like “The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting On an Open Fire)” and “Jingle Bell Rock.”
Snow Globe Town also enters at No. 15 on Top Album Sales, No. 14 on Top Current Album Sales and No. 49 on Top Country Albums.
Yearwood’s new Christmastime bows at No. 36 on Top Holiday Albums, and the project includes new takes on classics like “My Favorite Things,” “Pure Imagination” and “Santa Claus Is Coming to Town.” The album also boasts a new original track, “Merry Christmas, Valentine,” co-written and performed by Yearwood and Garth Brooks.
Christmastime also starts at No. 50 on the Top Current Albums chart.
Rounding out the debuts on Top Holiday Albums is Alpert’s Christmas Time Is Here, entering at No. 44. The project, which marks Alpert’s third holiday set, also bows at No. 4 on Contemporary Jazz Albums and No. 18 on the overall Jazz Albums chart. Christmas Time Is Here includes the legendary trumpeter, composer and record label executive’s takes on “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” “Santa Baby” and “Winter Wonderland.”
Alpert’s first seasonal project, 1968’s Christmas Album, reached No. 1 on Billboard’s then-titled Christmas LP’s chart, while his second holiday set, 2017’s The Christmas Wish, reached No. 5 on Top Holiday Albums in 2017.
