The wait is over for festive fans as Heart Breakfast announces the triumphant return of its beloved Christmas anthem. Sleeps 'Til Santa is officially back for 2025, ready to fill British homes with its unmistakable festive cheer.
The Festive Schedule
Starting on Monday, December 1st, 2025, the nation's favourite Christmas countdown will kick into gear. Every weekday morning, just after the 7am and 8am time slots, Heart Breakfast presenters Jamie and Amanda will play the iconic track. This carefully timed broadcast ensures the song becomes the perfect soundtrack for families during the morning routine, providing what many describe as the ultimate school run sing-along experience.
Your Chance to Join the Festive Fun
In an exciting development for this year's campaign, Heart is actively seeking enthusiastic children aged 12 and under to participate in the festive celebrations. The radio station wants loud, Christmas-crazy kids to join Jamie and Amanda on air to introduce Sleeps 'Til Santa to listeners across the country.
Parents and guardians can now nominate their children for this unique opportunity. The selected young presenters will help count down the days until Santa's arrival every weekday morning throughout December. Heart Breakfast producers could be calling back successful nominees very soon, so families are encouraged to submit their entries promptly.
