Five Hours Before It Airs on TV, Tyler Hynes to Host Free Screening of 2026 Hallmark Christmas Movie

Screening at a film location
Hynes plans to welcome fans to the Park Theatre in Vancouver, British Columbia, where parts of The Nights Before Christmas were filmed. He said the screening is a chance to celebrate the movie’s cast and crew with people who enjoy their work.
In an Instagram post, Hynes said he had rented the theater for the afternoon and described the gathering as an informal way to thank the artists involved. He said some seats would be available for fans.
How to get tickets
The screening is scheduled for November 14 at 12 p.m. Pacific time. Tickets are limited, and fans can seek them from theparktheatre.ca starting October 29 at noon Pacific time by entering the promotional code TY.
The film is due to premiere on Hallmark Channel that evening at 8 p.m. Eastern, about five hours after the theater event begins.
A repeating Christmas Eve
Hynes plays Marty, a man who feels stuck in life and wishes for more time. After holiday magic makes him relive Christmas Eve, he starts noticing the people and experiences he had previously overlooked.
Marty learns new instruments and languages and reads widely. He falls for Chloe, a journalist who has recently lost her job, but each time Christmas Eve returns, she has no memory of him.
As the cycle continues, Marty tries to win Chloe over and understand what he must do to move forward. Laci J Mailey plays Chloe.
