Home Depot is kicking off the holidays with a 10-foot polar bear and a Santa you control from your phone
Home Depot's 2026 holiday collection launches Aug. 27, bringing a 10-foot polar bear, app-controlled Santas, and animated Disney and Marvel characters.
TL;DR: Home Depot's 2026 holiday collection launches online Aug. 27, featuring a 10-foot polar bear, an 8-foot nutcracker with LCD "LifeEyes," an app-controlled Santa, and animated characters from Disney and Marvel, with apartment-friendly decor for smaller spaces.
The holidays might still be months away, but Home Depot isn't waiting around. Fresh off Home Depot's own Christmas in July sale, which brought back the viral 9-foot Grand Duchess tree and an even bigger version of the fan-favorite 8.5-foot Towering Santa, the retailer is following up with its full 2026 holiday collection.
It launches online Aug. 27, with new decor and a handful of tech upgrades to help shoppers turn their homes into a winter wonderland well before Thanksgiving even hits.
From giant animatronic Santas to nostalgic Disney and Marvel characters, this year's lineup is stacked with statement pieces. Home Depot says the collection has something for every space and budget, whether you've got a sprawling yard, a front porch, or a cozy apartment.
