On Tuesday, the Blackhawks announced the promotional schedule for their Centennial Celebration throughout the 2025-26 regular season. And, after a few years without them, I’m thrilled to share that there will be BOBBLEHEADS this year!!
According to Blackhawks President of Business Operations Jamie Faulkner, the organization started planning for this celebratory season three years ago. There was coordination with the NHL as well as the Detroit Red Wings and New York Rangers, the other two Original Six teams marking their 100th birthday this season, to make sure there were unique elements to all three teams while also incorporating the history of the league that each franchise represents.
“Our starting point really was we started asking ourselves a bunch of questions,” Faulkner said. “What do we want to celebrate in this a hundred years? What do our fans want us to celebrate? What do our alumni want us to celebrate and what stories do we want to tell?”
There will be 17 games this coming season — five in the Atrium and 12 at the doors anywhere at the United Center — where fans will be able to pick up a giveaway. That’s almost half of the home slate. Faulkner said we will not see any white jerseys at home, however. That’s a decision that’s made by general managers apparently, and with some coordination with the opposing team but the Blackhawks are going to stick with their Centennial design on the red home sweaters this season.
The Blackhawks have 100 years of history to celebrate. So let’s talk about some pretty exciting promotions the Blackhawks have on the books for this year.

Blackhawks Hall of Fame
This is the final week to vote for the first ever induction class into the Chicago Blackhawks Hall of Fame. Voting officially closes on Friday, Aug. 8 at 11:59 PM.
The Blackhawks have not yet officially announced a date for announcing the elected members from the Modern Era and Heritage ballots.
Faulkner shared with me that they hope to make an announcement of the elected members closer to the start of the regular season, and hope to be able to announce the opening of the physical Hall of Fame space at Fifth Third Arena around that time as well.
Fan engagement and voting for the Blackhawks Hall of Fame has “far exceeded” the organizations expectations going into the process.
