Sabrina Carpenter fans can get into the Christmas spirit as the singer’s new festive special debuts this weekend. A Nonsense Christmas with Sabrina Carpenter sees the Espresso star perform songs from her 2023 Christmas-themed EP, ‘Fruitcake’, alongside duets with some big names.
The film’s official synopsis reads: “It’s a nonsense holiday and we’re so here for it. In this special with musical guests, pop icon Sabrina Carpenter will perform songs from her holiday EP ‘Fruitcake’ and other iconic chart-topping holiday covers. This special will also feature show-stopping music performances, comedic guests, unexpected duets, plus many more surprises and fun cameos.”
A Nonsense Christmas with Sabrina Carpenter is streaming from 2am on Saturday, December 7, exclusively on Netflix, which is included with Sky’s new £15 TV and Netflix bundle.

Sky is giving away a free Netflix subscription with its new TV bundles, including the £15 Essential TV plan.
Sky Stream lets members watch live and on-demand TV content without a satellite dish or aerial and includes hit shows like The Day of the Jackal and the upcoming second season of Squid Game.
Speaking to Netflix ahead of the film’s launch, Carpenter said: “The holidays have always been so special to me. I am excited to bring my take to a classic holiday variety show – infusing my love of music and comedy to make something that is uniquely me.”
A Nonsense Christmas comes ahead of the singer’s Short n’ Sweet tour, which will see her perform a string of dates across the UK in March 2025, including London’s The O2 and Manchester’s Co-op Live Arena, with resale tickets available here. Short n’ Sweet – the singer’s sixth album featuring the number one single, Espresso – broke records when it was released earlier this year.
It saw Carpenter become the first female in history to score both the UK’s number one album and single simultaneously while also dominating all three top positions on the Official Singles Chart with Taste, Please Please Please and Espresso, as per the Official Charts Company. The album sold 89,000 units in its first week, marking the second-biggest opening week of the year so far, behind only Taylor Swift’s Tortured Poets Department.
Elsewhere, Disney+ is home to a raft of music films and documentaries, including the recently released Beatles ‘64 and the upcoming Elton John: Never Too Late. A Disney+ subscription now starts at £4.99 for the Standard with Ads plan, with members able to save up to £25.98 by paying for year up front on the Standard or Premium plan, bagging 12 months for the price of 10.
