Chicago Bulls Christmas Advent Calendar 2026

Last Christmas, I Made One Rule: Nobody Opens Tomorrow’s Door Early

That rule lasted about a week.

The problem with a sports Advent calendar isn’t really the first surprise. It’s what happens after you open it.

You immediately start wondering what they hid behind the next door.

Looking at this Chicago Bulls Christmas Advent Calendar 2026, I know I’d have exactly the same problem again.

One day might give me a basketball player-inspired piece.

The next could be a red-and-black sneaker.

Then a Bulls-style cap.

Then maybe the jersey.

By December 10, I’d probably be standing in front of the calendar negotiating with myself:

Technically, midnight is only a few hours away…

This Is Very Chicago Before It Is Very Christmas

That’s probably my favorite thing about the design.

It doesn’t take a generic Christmas calendar and simply add a basketball logo to the front.

The whole presentation leans into Chicago basketball.

Red. Black. White.

The box artwork features the Chicago skyline and United Center-inspired imagery, while the pictured 24-piece collection carries the theme through basketball-related details.

The Christmas atmosphere comes from the countdown itself and the way you use the collection during December.

So even after the holidays are over, the individual designs don’t suddenly feel out of place.

I’d Be Hunting for the #23 Jersey From Day One

Yes, there are plenty of pieces to choose from.

But I already know which one I’d be waiting for.

That red #23 jersey-inspired design sitting in the third row would immediately become the “please let this be today’s one” piece.

And that’s part of what makes this collection fun for a Bulls fan.

The 24 designs aren’t all trying to do the same thing.

The pictured assortment includes multiple basketball player-inspired figures in red uniforms, followed by smaller Bulls-themed objects and symbols. There’s a basketball, high-top sneaker, whistle, bottle, jersey, team lineup, cap, trophy-style piece, basketball hoop and pennant.

Then the final row changes the mood again with a scarf, medal-style design, foam finger, coach’s clipboard-style piece, sports bag and crest.

Opening them in random order would be half the entertainment.

My Tree Would Slowly Turn Into a Bulls Display

I wouldn’t put everything up at once.

That’s what I learned from doing these countdown-style collections before.

I’d open the day’s surprise and immediately add it to one dedicated section of the Christmas tree.

Day 1: one piece.

Day 2: another.

A week later, that corner starts looking suspiciously red and black.

By Christmas Eve, you’ve accidentally built an entire basketball-themed section of the tree.

And because the pictured pieces have hanging loops, that progression makes visual sense: the collection can grow along with the countdown rather than sitting forgotten inside the box.

I’d probably keep the basketball, sneaker, #23 jersey and cap close together.

The player-inspired pieces?

Those would get their own little lineup.

Yes, I would absolutely rearrange them several times.

There Are 24 Pieces, but the Variety Is What Would Keep Me Opening It

A collection of 24 nearly identical logos would lose me pretty quickly.

This one doesn’t look like that.

The player-style pieces give it basketball action, while the accessories and symbols break up the collection and make each day less predictable.

Some designs are immediately recognizable as basketball-related.

Others feel more like little pieces of fan culture—the scarf, foam finger, cap, sports bag and pennant.

Together, they make the calendar feel less like “24 Bulls logos” and more like 24 small snapshots of being a basketball fan.

That’s a much more interesting countdown.

And on December 25?

I’d probably put the empty calendar away.

The pieces would stay out.

That’s always the part I like about this type of Advent calendar. December gives you the daily surprise, but once the countdown is finished, the individual pieces can become part of your seasonal fan display.

Next Christmas, I’d pull them back out and probably remember which ones I was ridiculously impatient to find.

Especially #23.

I already know I wouldn’t have waited patiently for that one.
