War Child UK has added two more events to its Jingle Jam 2026 plans, including a Football Manager 27 tournament and a Tubbo event combining Minecraft speedrunning with boxing. It is an unusually broad set of activities, but at least there should be something for both the spreadsheet enthusiasts and the people who would rather hit something.
Tubbo’s IRL MCSR Boxing event takes place on 5 December, with tickets due to go on sale on 20 November. The charity describes it as a hybrid of Minecraft speedrunning and boxing, supporting War Child through Jingle Jam. Further practical details should come through the official event channels as ticket sales approach.
The Football Manager 27 Shuffle Draft tournament follows on 7 December, featuring Zealand, Big Robbo and further participants still to be announced. Donations will support children affected by war, with fans able to join the action and influence the game.
Those additions join an existing programme that begins with Jingle Cats on 1 December at 5pm, featuring Lewis and Simon from The Yogscast. Future Games Show Presents: Raise Your Game is scheduled for 3 December, with Rosie Caddick and Ash Millman taking part in gaming challenges.
Jingle Jam brings creators, games and their communities together for a fortnight of fundraising. War Child’s involvement supports its work with children affected by conflict, including education, protection and mental health support.
You can follow the wider campaign through the official Jingle Jam website and find more about the charity through War Child’s event announcement. The December calendar is already getting busy, so this is a useful time to work out which streams and events you want to catch.
