Holiday Box Office

Top-grossing films released into the major holiday windows that studios traditionally target. ← Back to leaderboards

Windows are anchored to a fixed date range (e.g. Christmas = Dec 18–31) rather than the actual moving holiday weekends, since TMDB only stores release date — not which weekend a film opened on. Films are matched by month and day across all years.
