Hi, anyone know when the (tasteless lol) Christmas jumper available and, how do we select it?
If/when it becomes available in-game, you would âselectâ it by choosing the basic Zwift orange jersey.

Should be around the 9th of December if it happens the same time as last year.
It seems that ZHQ has abandoned Christmas 
this year ?

Yeah, was wondering about this as well, I havenât noticed the usual festive lights around watopia but iâm not always that observant. Glad Iâm not the only one whoâs noticed

Yes it is sad since so much effort went into other celebration events during the year. Just enabling the previous Christmas lights and Christmas jersey would be nice.

Yeah. Shouldnât be that hard to do. @shooj Will the Christmas Jersey be enabled this year?

Hi everyone,
Unfortunately our electric bill is phenomenal this year from having to power all the lights in Neokyo and as such there wonât be a Christmas Jersey (turns out the knitting/wool costs are huge).
Weâve been turning on economy mode in the wee hours of the night and hope to have saved enough pennies to bring in a little surprise to see in the New Year.

Since 2018 I have cycled up the Alpe in a Zwift Christmas jumper and it looks like this tradition of mine has been halted.

Starting to feel Zwift is forgetting that some of itâs subscribers (ok could just be me) just enjoy the simple pleasures in life and cycling and not so much fancy graphics and flashing neon.
Reckon this year ride will be titled 'twas the last ride up the Alpe before Christmas and bah humbug to Zwift for no Christmas Jumper.

You know it is just a switch that need to be turned on.
There are probably more people on Zwift celebrating Christmas than any other celebration.

I think you might have missed Jamesâs tongue-in-cheek British humour there! 
If I worked for Zwift, I would have been proud of that reply!
But I donât work for Zwift, so I can give my hunch.
If you look at ZwiftInsiderâs Christmas jumper story from a couple of years ago, there were people saying it didnât work right on Apple TV. There have also been display problems recently with Apple devices and riders appearing as if in the shade, so if Zwift thought the lights wouldnât work right and they wanted to play it safe, they might not âswitch the lights onâ as there might be issues on some platforms.
Similarly, if you were playing it safe, you might choose to recycle an old April 1st surprise (e.g. tricycles) and recycle an old Halloweâen special (e.g. costumes), and New Yearâs hats might be relatively safe too.
The huge number of platforms Zwift runs on means these seasonal things will take up a fair bit of resource for something which is temporary. It wouldnât surprise me if theyâve just decided to concentrate on fixing longer-term things (like the UI). Itâs a shame but, if I had to choose, Iâd do exactly the same.
OH! But I might create a ride where you can earn/wear a Christmas jersey. Thatâd be simple enough to do.

Spent all that investor money already? Next round maybe chuck some of it back into the game instead of advertising and promotions.

I checked all jerseys, helmets and came up empty this year for Christmas. Disappointing that many complained about it and none of the rest of us can celebrate in Zwift.
