61 Holiday Zoom Backgrounds That Will Make Virtual Celebrations Merry and Bright
The holidays are here, and for many, Zoom is still this year’s go-to platform for Christmas parties, Hanukkah gatherings, and festive family functions. Video calls are making it possible for people to connect with loved ones all over the world, no matter how far they might be from one another. To get in the holiday spirit, displaying a bright and merry background on your device is a foolproof way to go. From images of glittery Christmas presents to wishful winter wonderlands, these themed scenes will fill your virtual gathering with nothing but holiday cheer.
Here’s how it works: to create a customised virtual background, first log in to your account on the Zoom website. Head to Settings, then Meeting Settings, and scroll down to make sure the Virtual Background capability is toggled on. Next, head to the app and click on Settings over there. In the menu on the left-hand side, you’ll see Virtual Background again, where you can select one of Zoom’s options or upload one of these holiday-inspired picks. Click on the plus-sign icon, and you can upload the background of your choice.
No matter how far away you are from loved ones, let Zoom connect you together and bring you all holiday happiness. Keep reading to download these festive, holiday-themed backgrounds.
