Elmo Saves Christmas - In this 1996 special, Grover works as a Christmas tree salesman. Throughout the special, he is shown trying to sell Christmas trees to Mr. Johnson, and later having to sell a coat rack (in the summer months) and even his own "Christmas Trees for Sale" sign (on next year's Christmas) because Elmo's wish for Christmas to be every day has caused a shortage of Christmas trees.

A Muppet Family Christmas - In this crossover special, Grover joins his fellow Sesame Street Muppets to spend Christmas at Fozzie's mother's farmhouse.

At the end of the special, Robin gives him a Fraggle pebble that he received from Boober Fraggle and states that he just loves Christmas.
Christmas with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir - Grover and several of his co-stars made a special guest appearance at the 2014 concert.
