How to watch Byron Allen Presents: A Merry Soulful Christmas online or on TV

Byron Allen on stage ahead of A Merry Soulful Christmas.

If you've so far struggled to get into the festive spirit, then Byron Allen Presents: A Merry Soulful Christmas might just be the singalong special to get you in the mood. While he's been linked with snapping up rival network ABC, billionaire TV mogul Allen will be the host with the festive most on CBS this Saturday for a musical tribute to Christmases past and present.

You can watch Byron Allen Presents: A Merry Soulful Christmas in the US but don't worry if you're on holiday while it's on — because you can stream it from anywhere with a VPN.

According to CBS, the two-hour special is set to provide "a perfect opportunity to gather the family, relax, and immerse in the magic of the holiday season through the power of music."

While CBS are keeping a tight lip on just who those music icons are that are set to feature on the show, Allen's standing in the industry suggests we'll be getting some big names belting out soulful renditions of Christmas classics.

You can watch Byron Allen Presents: A Merry Soulful Christmas Celebration on any of the streaming services above by using a VPN – no matter where you are in the world!

Normally a streaming service will know where you are trying to tune in from and block you if you're not in the right country but a Virtual Private Network (VPN) is an app that hides your location. That means you can access your usual sports and entertainment services even while you're traveling abroad.

Our favorite VPN is ExpressVPN, which is the No. 1-rated VPN in the world right now according to our sister site, TechRadar.


How to use a VPN to watch any stream

  • Download the app at ExpressVPN
  • Choose the location of the streaming service you want to watch (UK, US, etc)
  • Navigate to the streaming service and start watching!
