Holiday Football at Soldier Field
Christmas Day in Chicago features the Chicago Bears taking on Green Bay in a matchup at Soldier Field. But on Friday, December 25, 2026, the traditional holiday routine shifts dramatically toward the lakefront. At 12:00 p.m. (CT), Soldier Field at 1410 Special Olympics Dr will host a matchup between the Chicago Bears and Green Bay. For fans looking to bypass the standard frigid stadium seats, exclusive access to the United Suite offers an alternative way to experience one of the NFL’s most historic rivalries.
The holiday package is designed for MileagePlus® Cardmembers seeking elevated hospitality alongside premium field views. Rather than standard ticket purchases, the experience relies on miles redemption, creating a distinct tier of access for loyal airline program participants.
Choose Between Three Mileage Tiers
The suite experience breaks down into three distinct ticketing structures, each carrying a different mileage cost and physical setup. Buyers must consider these choices carefully, as the seating arrangement directly dictates both the vantage point and the overall comfort level during the contest.

- Standard tickets: Cost 90,000 miles per ticket and feature a stadium-style seat.
- High-top tickets: Cost 80,000 miles per ticket and utilize a high-top chair.
- Lounge chair tickets: Cost 70,000 miles per ticket, featuring a lounge chair seat lower to the ground that may impact view while seated.
Every ticket is sold individually, with a maximum of two tickets per Cardmember. Tickets transfer via Ticketmaster, and all options include in-suite food alongside pre-selected soft drinks, beer, wine, and spirits. Taxes and gratuities are included in the price, though attendees cover their own airfare, ground transportation, and accommodations.
Strict Program Rules and Restrictions
Securing a suite for the Christmas Day showdown carries administrative constraints. The purchases are non-refundable once redeemed with miles, prohibiting any returns or exchanges. Resale or bartering is expressly forbidden; any attempt to transfer or sell the passes outside the official channel risks immediate confiscation or cancellation.
Age restrictions also apply strictly within the suite environment. Any guest under the age of 21 must be accompanied by someone aged 21 or older, and both individuals must purchase their tickets through this sale. Alcoholic beverages will be served only to guests 21+ with valid ID. In the event of unforeseen circumstances forcing a schedule change or cancellation, United reserves the right to cancel or reschedule the event, notifying participants via email with further instructions.
For members falling short of the required mileage threshold, account rules permit purchasing up to 200,000 miles per account every calendar year, with a maximum of 50,000 miles in any consecutive 90-day period. With kickoff scheduled for 12:00 p.m. (CT) on Christmas Day, the countdown has begun for Cardmembers aiming to trade their living rooms for the historic turf of Soldier Field.
