The next Chicago Bears game is scheduled for the NFC Wild Card round on the weekend of January 10–12, 2026, with the Bears hosting a playoff game at Soldier Field that Saturday.

Quick Scoop

  • The Bears finished their regular season on January 4, 2026, with a home game against the Detroit Lions, closing at 11–6 and securing the NFC North title.
  • That set them up to host a Wild Card playoff game the following weekend, which the NFL designates as Wild Card Weekend (January 10–12, 2026).
  • Ticket listings and event pages show a Chicago Bears home Wild Card matchup at Soldier Field on Saturday, January 10, 2026, confirming that as the next Bears game after Week 18.
