How do you make a Discord server Christmas themed?

Rename a few channels with festive emoji, swap the server icon for a winter one and add events for the dates you care about. Then give members something to come back to each day. Christmas Tree Bot covers that part: a tree the server waters together and an advent calendar from Dec 1 to Dec 25.

Ideas for December

Pick a few. The ones marked with the bot take a single command.

  • Festive channel names

    Put a 🎄 or ❄️ in front of your busiest channels, like #🎄・general. Edit the channel to rename it, and change it back in January.

  • A winter server icon

    A snowy or festive version of your icon shows in every member’s server list. Boosted servers can change the banner too.

  • Christmas emoji and stickers

    Ask members to draw a few, then upload the best ones as custom emoji and stickers for December.

  • A tree to grow together

    With the bot

    Plant one with /plant. Everyone waters it in turns with /tree, so the whole server has a reason to drop by.

  • An advent calendar

    With the bot

    From Dec 1 to Dec 25, each member opens one door a day with /adventcalendar. It doubles as a countdown to Christmas.

  • Dates on the calendar

    Create a Discord event for a film night, a game night or Christmas Eve in voice. Events show at the top of the channel list, so nobody misses them.

  • A gift swap

    Collect names in a thread, draw pairs and message each person their match. With the bot, members can also give each other coins or Grinch tokens with /send.

  • A visit from the Grinch

    With the bot

    Send the Grinch to a random server with /grinch, and team up to drive him out when he lands on yours.

Add the tree

  1. Add the bot

    Open the invite link, pick your server and press Authorize. It is free.

  2. Plant the tree

    Run /plant in any channel and give the tree a name. It belongs to the whole server.

  3. Water it

    Run /tree and press the button. Then it is someone else’s turn.

More questions

How do I add a Christmas tree to my Discord server?
Add Christmas Tree Bot, then run /plant with a name. Members water the tree with /tree. The tree guide has the rest.
Is there a Discord bot for an advent calendar?
Christmas Tree Bot has one. From Dec 1 to Dec 25 every member can open a door a day with /adventcalendar for coins, tickets, boosters and more.
How do I add a Christmas countdown to Discord?
Create a Discord event for Christmas Day so it sits at the top of the channel list. The bot’s advent calendar counts down too, one door a day.
How do I run a Secret Santa on Discord?
Collect names in a thread, draw the pairs yourself or with a name picker, and message each person their match. Christmas Tree Bot has no Secret Santa draw, but players can send each other coins or Grinch tokens with /send.

Start with the tree. The rest of December follows.
