Decorate the Stadium Tree and Meet a Chicago Bears Player

Soldier Field, 1410 S. Museum Campus Dr., hosts its third annual Breakfast with Santa Saturday, Dec. 5 at 10am in the United Club for about 600 guests.

The lavish brunch will be one of the few times during the year when the United Club’s fine dining is open to the public.

Families will not only be able feast on a fantastic holiday-themed breakfast, but also visit with Santa, his elves and with a former Chicago Bears’ player, Jerry Azumah.

At the stadium, children under age 12 can decorate a cookie to bring home. Families are encouraged to bring their own ornament to decorate the stadium tree. The top three handmade ornaments will receive prizes.

“We invite everyone to take advantage of this unique holiday event as it’s a special opportunity to experience this historic venue,” said Timothy J. Mitchell, General Superintendent and CEO of the Chicago Park District.
