Hallmark Channel Memorial Day Weekend Marathon, Full Lineup And Movie Schedule

Memorial Day Weekend may be the unofficial kick-off to summer for most, but that doesn’t mean those who are simply just enjoying the idea of some time off from work can’t also kick back and watch some feel-good movies and TV instead. Luckily, Hallmark Channel will have those people covered with a marathon of wedding and romance-themed films to occupy their day.

In a preview for the full weekend event (which is being called the Memorial Day Rom-Com-A-Thon), scenes of various movies the network has produced over the years are shown, teasing that the whole weekend will be like a romantic comedy as a result.

This year, Hallmark’s Rom-Com-filled holiday weekend seems to be geared towards taking viewers to exotic and new locales, with several films taking place in tropical destinations, European escapes, or worlds very different from the network’s usual small-town vibes.

Here’s which movies will air as part of the event.
