Prairie winters in Alberta have long been defined by Green and Gold football traditions, and the Edmonton Elks Canadian Football Advent Calendar brings that open-air game-day spirit directly into your holiday living space. Wrapped in deep forest green, athletic gold, and crisp white snowfall motifs, the upright collector box centers on the antlered Elks crest, the official CFL shield, and a glowing winter rendering of Commonwealth Stadium against the downtown Edmonton skyline.
Commonwealth Stadium Artwork and Upright Collector Presence
Constructed from rigid paperboard with a smooth full-wrap print across the front panel and side spine, the calendar stands cleanly on a wood mantel, desk, or console table beside evergreen branches and holiday ornaments. Above the stadium bowl, the gold-bordered ribbon reads 24 Days of Green & Gold Surprises while the cursive script Our Team Our City Our Pride anchors the right edge. Twenty-four individually numbered perforated doors turn each morning from December 1 through Christmas Eve into a tactile unboxing routine.

Inside the 24-Piece Green and Gold Roster Lineup
Rather than flat hanging cutouts that disappear after the holidays, each numbered compartment holds a three-dimensional miniature figurine mounted on a flat, matte-black circular base. Every pedestal is printed in crisp white with the player’s or coach’s full name, allowing the figures to stand upright on bookshelves, tiered display risers, or coffee tables without extra stands.
Across the 24 daily reveals, collectors assemble a full Edmonton Elks sideline and on-field squad in signature green home jerseys, white numbers, and gold football pants. Sideline leadership begins with Head Coach Mark Kilam in his green Elks jacket and cap, joined by offensive playmakers #7 Cody Fajardo, #3 Austin Mack, #5 Justin Rankin, #11 Kaion Julien-Grant, and #22 Javon Leake. Trench anchors #57 David Beard, #65 Mark Korte, and #69 Brett Boyko line up alongside defensive and special teams standouts including #30 Tyrell Ford, #26 Vincent Blanchard, #50 Joel Dublanko, #42 Noah Taylor, #20 Kenny Logan Jr., #9 Royce Metchie, #4 Brandon Barlow, #10 Jake Julien, #0 Kobe Williams, #32 Leonard Johnson, #25 Chelen Garnes, #40 Robbie Smith, #90 Jordan Williams, #95 Tomari Fox, and #93 Francis Bemiy.

For households where football Saturdays and Sundays span both Canadian and American gridirons in matching green-and-gold colors, pairing this CFL countdown with our Green Bay Packers advent calendar builds a cohesive two-league winter display across the family room.
