Top Holiday Zoom, Teams & Slack Backgrounds for 2025

It’s that time of year again when our calendars fill up faster than a plate at a holiday potluck, and virtual meetings start to feel a little more… festive. A great background won’t solve every year-end scramble, but it can bring a touch of cheer to the screen (and maybe even spark a smile on the other side of the call). 

So whether you’re wrapping up projects or gearing up for the new year, here are our favourite holiday backgrounds for 2025 that have just the right amount of merry, no matter how festive you’re feeling.

We’re kicking things off with the big question of the season: Are you team ’90s Christmas, or team Ralph Lauren Christmas?

The nostalgia is unbeatable.

We had to educate the team on what Ralph Lauren Christmas is, and it’s all about the tartan plaid. 

Speaking of debates, are these really Christmas movies?

A classic, but isn’t it a little too magical?

We may have adjusted this to feel a bit more Christmasy – disarmed and all – because we still aren’t fully convinced.

One thing we can all agree on is how perfectly simple these next ones are. Just the right amount of holiday cheer without confessing your love for Santa.

We’re calling this one “O Christmas Tree“ on repeat.

And this one, well, it’s a bit of everything… minus the snow. 

Speaking of which… do you think this one could convince your boss there’s a blizzard outside and you really can’t make it in? Oh wait, these are for virtual meetings. Better luck next time.

The 12 hour crackling noise is unfortunately not included with this one.

A sure way to stay wrapped up, and maybe even give the hint that you’d like to wrap up your call.

Simple, just like the new onboarding process, right?

We’ve gotten a bit more crafty here. This one is sure to take your calls worldwide, no mailbox or postage necessary. 

This may come as a surprise, but we had to make room for the classic holiday movies that never get old and somehow show up every year… no matter what.

“The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear”, just make sure you’re muted. 

For this one to really have the best effect, we recommend saying something out of the box that’s truly worthy of this reaction from Ralphie during your next call. 

Maybe you’re just a simple guy, or more of a scrooge, whatever you want to call it, okay?

And of course, we have to celebrate in fashion for 2026!

Leonardo would agree, but unfortunately ‘25 is the cut off for him.

Sometimes, the celebration gets a little… messy. Just make sure your laptop is out of the splash zone.

Cue the countdown, cue the cheers, cue the confetti, 2026 is officially here (and yes, it looks way cooler than it probably feels at 11:59).

Whether you’re decking your virtual halls with a 90s tree, questionable movie choices, or popping champagne (safely, we hope) to ring in the New Year, the right background can make your meetings feel a little more special.

We hope this year’s roundup brings some cheer, a few laughs, and maybe even a little inspiration for your own calls.

From all of us at Klyck, we wish you a joyful, bright, and camera-ready holiday season and a fantastic start to 2026!
