Arsenal FC Come On You Gunners Christmas Advent Calendar

December in North London has always been defined by floodlit evening kickoffs, red-and-white scarves knotted against the winter chill, and the roar of “Come On You Gunners” echoing across Holloway Road. Tracing the club’s lineage back to the munitions workers who founded the side in Woolwich in 1886, the Arsenal FC Come On You Gunners Christmas Advent Calendar pairs the busiest month of the football calendar with 24 sculpted 3D hanging ornaments housed inside a claret-burgundy and antique-gold collector box.

On the front cover, gold serif capitals arch over an atmospheric winter night outside EMIRATES STADIUM, where a towering pine tree, ribbon-tied gift boxes, an antique field cannon, and the red-and-white home kit stand before the illuminated stadium bowl. Inside, an upright burgundy countdown grid presents 24 gold-bordered doors numbered 01 through 24 with delicate snowflake corners, accompanied by a 24-compartment presentation tray stamped along its front lip with the club’s historic Latin motto: VICTORIA CONCORDIA CRESCIT • EST. 1886 (“Victory Through Harmony”).

From the Highbury Clock to Emirates Matchday Keepsakes

Every door reveals a three-dimensional molded keepsake fitted with a top metallic suspension ring, allowing supporters to hang each piece directly on Christmas tree branches or keep the entire 24-piece lineup organized inside the partitioned tray. Several ornaments honor the architectural and championship pillars of the club: twin brass-toned Woolwich cannons (including one mounted on a THE GUNNERS plinth), a vintage mantelpiece replica of the famous HIGHBURY clock dial, a golden laurel wreath medallion inscribed INVINCIBLES LEGACY, and miniature sculptures of Emirates Stadium in both matchday and snow-dusted winter editions.

Matchday ritual and supporter culture fill the remaining compartments. Fans will recognize the red-and-white home shirt, a fringed club scarf, a brass-bordered COME ON YOU GUNNERS! plaque, an EMIRATES STADIUM MATCHDAY ADMIT ONE ticket stub, an open-top red double-decker trophy parade bus, a gold-striped crimson football boot, goalkeeper gloves, and a football resting inside the goal net. Seasonal touches bring North London spirit to the holiday tree, led by club mascot Gunnersaurus in a Santa hat, Father Christmas in Arsenal red, a COYG! pine tree, a cannon-crested bell, a wrapped gift box, a snowflake medallion, and a five-pointed star.

Constructed with a rigid paperboard exterior and a custom-fitted 24-slot tray, the calendar is built to outlast a single December fixture run. Once Twelfth Night passes and the tree comes down, every ornament slots back into its dedicated compartment so the collection stays protected until the next winter campaign kicks off.
