Hallmark Channel Movies in Australia

Every wondered where to watch Hallmark Movies in Australia? They are very popular in America and for good reason, they are wholesome, family friendly movies. They are sometimes criticised as being too predictable but I think that’s part of their charm. You know what you are going to get.

I love them because they are G or PG rated and can have them on while young children are around. They are most popular around Christmas time. Hallmark Channel releases around 30 – 40 movies just for that season.

Several years ago we had the Hallmark Channel through Foxtel but sadly that disappeared. The Universal Channel replaced it but it has more content geared towards crime.

So how does an Aussie get to watch the famous Hallmark Movies?

Unfortunately there is not a simple answer. There is no straight comparison. I actually emailed USA Hallmark about it and received a  ‘sorry, Hallmark Channel is only available in the USA’ reply back.

There are a few movies and tv series on different streaming services that are Hallmark but they must have sold the licence for those particular ones. 

Keep scrolling to find a list of Hallmark Channel Movies I have found and where you can watch them, they are spread across the different streaming services we have available in Australia. 

Please note that a VPN is NOT needed and these are legitimate legal ways to watch these movies here in Australia.

If you are looking to buy Hallmark Movie DVDs to own, then please visit my article letting you know who sells the DVDs or digital copies here in Australia.

The below movies are Hallmark Channel or Hallmark Movies and Mysteries Channel Movies or TV series. They originated on the Hallmark Channel in America. There are ‘Hallmark Like’ movies from channels like Lifetime and UPtv and I have listed them here. (separate page)

YouTube

If you watch YouTube regularly you may come across Hallmark Movies that have been uploaded there. Often that is done by random people and is technically not legal. I have found a couple of movies that have been upload by the production company or a legal distributor. 

Johnson Production Group

ACI on the Go

Family Central – shows movies under licence

Great! Movies Romance – tv channel from UK sharing movies worldwide

You Tube Movies (Official You Tube Channel)

Plex

Plex îs a free streaming service which means there are advertisements throughout the show when being watched. You can access it online and it’s also available on smart tvs and I find it not user friendly and clunky. For some reason they  display titles and when you click on them to watch, it says ‘title not available to watch’ which is frustrating as there are a few Hallmark titles displayed on there but cannot be watched.

I did find a few of titles that can be watched:

  • Cancel Christmas – 2010
  • Window Wonderland – 2013
  • Timeless Love – 2019

Beamafilm

A regular reader (thanks DM!)  alerted me to Beamafilm, a smaller independent streaming service. It can be accessed through many libraries or it has a 30 day free trail with a charge after that. Which I am having trouble finding, probably because I signed up through my library. There is one Hallmark movies I have found:

  • Hearts Down Under  – also known as Romance on the Menu – 2021

Fetch

Fetch is a box that combines free tv, streaming services, subscription services and paid movies. 

The movies do change, I list those I find below

Just Watch

A website that you can plug in the movie/tv show name to see where it is being shown in Australia is called Just Watch.

It’s a great website that is mostly up to date. Put in your selection and make sure that streaming in Australia is  selected. 

As I said, it’s mostly up to date but it’s a good indication of where a particular show to movie might be streaming. 

Your Local Library

One place you could check is your local library. My own local library has quite a few Hallmark Movies DVD available to loan. 

Some movies are ones that are available to stream but I’ve also seen several movies I’ve not seen at all. 

Hallmark Countdown to Christmas Book

Recently I bought myself the Hallmark Countdown to Christmas Book. It has some tidbits on how they make Hallmark Christmas Movies. It includes some Christmas Recipes and a few crafts. It has some lovely photographs.

It is very sweet and a great book to have for any Hallmark Movie fan. I bought mine from Amazon Australia. It came from the USA and as a Prime Member if I spent over $49 I receive free shipping (even from the US!) It took 10 days to get here and I just love it.

I did a quick google and there are Australian stores that sell it (although at a more expensive price)
