Holidays on Ice is a 1997 collection of essays and stories about Christmas, some new and some previously published, by David Sedaris.

The most popular essay is "Santaland Diaries", which is Sedaris' take on working as an elf at a department store grotto during Christmas season.
"Holidays on Ice" was re-released in October 2008 by publisher, Little, Brown & Company. The book has 176 pages.
