De Christmas Top 50 van Sky Radio is een jaarlijks terugkerend evenement waar veel mensen naar uitkijken. Sinds 2005 wordt deze lijst samengesteld met behulp van de luisteraars van het nonstop radiostation. De lijst bevat de meest populaire kerstnummers van dat jaar, variërend van klassiekers tot moderne hits.

Van 2005 tot en met 2013 was de Christmas Top 50 een vaste waarde op de Nederlandse radio. Vanaf 2014 werd de lijst uitgebreid tot een Top 101, maar sinds 2019 is deze weer teruggebracht naar de originele Top 50. Dit betekent dat alleen de allerbeste kerstnummers een plekje krijgen in de lijst.

Twee van de meest populaire kerstnummers aller tijden zijn "Last Christmas" van Wham! en "All I Want for Christmas Is You" van Mariah Carey. "Last Christmas" werd uitgebracht in 1984 en is sindsdien een kerstklassieker geworden. Het nummer gaat over een verbroken relatie en is opvallend opgewekt en vrolijk van toon, waardoor het perfect past bij de feestelijke sfeer van Kerstmis.

"All I Want for Christmas Is You" werd uitgebracht in 1994 en is sindsdien uitgegroeid tot een van de meest gedraaide kerstnummers op de radio. Het nummer is geschreven en geproduceerd door Mariah Carey zelf en heeft een opvallende mix van pop, R&B en kerstmuziek. Het is een vrolijk en energiek nummer dat perfect past bij de feestelijke sfeer van Kerstmis.
