My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Holidays Unwrapped is a 2019 animated holiday season-themed one-hour television special which is a part of Hasbro's My Little Pony: Equestria Girls toyline and media franchise, itself a spin-off of the 2010 relaunch of the main My Little Pony toyline. The special was animated using Adobe Animate, written by Anna Christopher, and directed by Ishi Rudell and Katrina Hadley, and was produced by DHX Media's 2D animation studio in Vancouver, Canada for Allspark Animation (a Hasbro subsidiary) in the United States.

Premiered on Discovery Family (a joint venture between Discovery, Inc. and Hasbro) on November 2, 2019, it is the fifth and final one-hour Equestria Girls special, following 2018's Forgotten Friendship and Rollercoaster of Friendship, and 2019's Spring Breakdown and Sunset's Backstage Pass. Unlike the previous four one-hour specials, Holidays Unwrapped is a compilation of six seven-minute shorts instead of a single hour-long story, although initially story editor Nick Confalone had planned a single special exploring Sunset Shimmer's backstory. It is also the last piece of Equestria Girls content produced by DHX Media.
