Movie enthusiasts can also experience the magic in theaters across North America and the U.K. starting November 17th; secure your tickets online via Fandango.
The Elf celebration extends beyond the screen with a special “Christmas Cookie Challenge” episode on the Food Network airing on November 23rd. Cable subscribers can also enjoy Elf on TBS and TNT throughout November and on AMC in December.
Elf’s grand 20th-anniversary celebration kicks off in the Big Apple on November 7th, illuminating the Empire State Building. The landmark will feature shoppable window displays until January 1, 2024, accompanied by pop-up events, movie screenings on December 3rd, 10th, and 17th, and a free photo opportunity at the 86th floor Observatory starting November 10th. An Elf-themed pop-up cart on November 7th, from 2 to 5 p.m. ET, will treat observatory ticket holders to free delights inspired by the elves’ four main food groups (candy, candy canes, candy corn, and syrup).
Elf enthusiasts can also embrace the festive style of Buddy and Jovie with exclusive Instagram and Snapchat filters.
