Live365 Announces 2nd Annual North Pole Live Holiday Song Tournament

It's that time of year again! It's officially time for Live365's 2nd Annual North Pole Live Holiday Song Tournament!

Once again, we have compiled 64 holiday-themed songs for a battle to find the best holiday song! This year, we gathered the top 64 holiday songs on Billboard's Holiday 100 chart, and we're ready for a new and improved tournament.

In addition to voting, we will also be taking prediction brackets this year. Predictions open TODAY (Monday, Nov. 25) and close 2 hours before voting starts on Monday, Dec. 2 at 1pm ET. The closest prediction bracket will win our grand prize of Grace Digital’s Mondo+ Classic in Black and a Live365 swag pack (shirt, hat, & surprise gift)! You can submit your predictions for the tournament HERE.
