How to watch Mariah Carey’s new Christmas special

Mariah Carey is back for the second year running on Apple TV+, this time with a new special ‘The Magic Continues’. The first Magical Christmas Special also remains available for streaming. Here’s how to watch the new special.

Carey’s 2020 special featured a lot of extravagant set design, CGI Santa Claus and a whole host of celebrity guests.

The 2021 ‘Magic Continues’ outing appears to be more subdued and less bombastic, evoking a more classical concert performance feel. It’s also shorter, with a runtime of under 20 minutes.

The show features an exclusive performance of Carey’s new holiday single ‘Fall in Love at Christmas’, joined by Khalid and Kirk Franklin. Carey will also sing the classic ‘Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)’, and participate in an interview with Zane Lowe.
