Bears publish Photo Journalism package highlighting concessions, community outreach and behind-the-scenes features
CHICAGO — The Chicago Bears released a Photo Journalism gallery on ChicagoBears.com that documents a series of team events and multimedia features spanning game-day preparations, community outreach and player-focused storytelling. The package includes coverage of concessions, community visits, Draft Diaries, Pro Bowl and day-in-the-life features that illustrate the club’s season activities. The gallery compiles photography and long-form pieces that the team has posted to ChicagoBears.com.
The Bears and Levy Restaurants, in the second year of their partnership, held a tasting event at Soldier Field that invited media and influencers to sample new menu items. The Bears and Levy will offer the new concession items at every home game this season, beginning with Monday night’s opener against the Vikings. The tasting served as a preview of what fans can expect at Soldier Field concession stands during the season.
The gallery chronicles the Bears’ return visit to Iowa’s Meskwaki Nation, the closest nationally-recognized Native American tribe to Chicago, where the team hosted youth and high school training camps with support from Nike. Bears staffers spent time learning about the Meskwaki Nation’s history, long-standing passion for sport and work to strengthen local football programs. The coverage highlights the team’s sustained outreach efforts and continued relationship with the Meskwaki Nation.
The roundup includes multiple long-form photo features and diaries such as Draft Diaries that follow the team’s International Fan of the Year and behind-the-scenes coverage of No. 1 draft pick Caleb Williams on draft day. The gallery also presents Pro Bowl photo essays and day-in-the-life pieces that profile front-office and coaching staff, offering varied perspectives on the franchise. ChicagoBears.com used photography to document moments from the 2023 season through spring events and the draft.
The gallery documents community and club events at Soldier Field, including the 27th Bears Care Gala featuring Kyler Gordon and Teven Jenkins and the team’s tribute to Hall of Famer Dick Butkus. It also highlights Salute to Service programming, Latino Heritage Month observances and fan events such as Family Fest. Lifestyle and player-focused pieces include a photo story on receiver Chase Claypool’s appearance at Paris Fashion Week.
NFL Sports Blog Take
ChicagoBears.com’s Photo Journalism gallery emphasizes visual storytelling to highlight game-day operations, community outreach and player narratives. The Levy tasting and Meskwaki Nation coverage show how the club combines commercial partnerships with community engagement. The Draft Diaries and behind-the-scenes pieces offer fans expanded access to team culture and events, and the package remains focused on lifestyle and feature coverage rather than roster or injury matters.
