The holidays just got a little brighter, thanks to the U.S. Postal Service. On Saturday, September 13, 2025, the Postal Service will officially unveil its brand-new Holiday Cheer Forever stamps at the Smithsonian National Postal Museum in Washington, D.C. The first-day-of-issue dedication ceremony begins at 11 a.m. ET, and the event is free and open to the public.

Michael J. Elston, USPS vice president of labor relations, will serve as the dedicating official. The news of these festive stamps is already making waves across social media with the hashtag #HolidayCheerStamps.

A Celebration of Holiday Traditions

Decorating with fruit, flowers, and greenery is a tradition that stretches back hundreds of years, and the Postal Service has beautifully captured that timeless spirit in four contemporary stamp designs:

  • A lush holly wreath tied with a bright red bow.
  • Three vibrant amaryllis flowers.
  • Two cheerful cardinals perched on mistletoe.
  • An evergreen branch adorned with fruit.

Each design radiates the joy and warmth of the holiday season—perfect for sealing holiday cards, gift packages, or even adding a touch of festive flair to everyday correspondence.

Where to Find Them

The Holiday Cheer Forever stamps and other philatelic products can be purchased through the Postal Store at usps.com/shopstamps, by phone at 844-737-7826, by mail through USA Philatelic, or at Post Office locations nationwide. For those who love officially licensed collectibles, the USPS Officially Licensed Collection is available on Amazon.

A Trusted Tradition

The U.S. Postal Service continues to be one of America’s most trusted brands, delivering to nearly 169 million addresses six—often seven—days a week. While independent and self-financing, USPS relies on the sale of postage, products, and services to fund its operations. With its 10-year Delivering for America plan, the Postal Service is committed to modernization, financial sustainability, and improved service for all Americans.

So, if you’re looking for a simple way to spread a little extra holiday cheer this year, look no further than the newest Forever stamps. They’re festive, timeless, and a small reminder that sometimes joy really can come in the mail.
