Gillette Stadium To Host Army-Navy Game In 2023

FOXBOROUGH, MA — America's Game in the world of college football for a lot of viewers means getting a first look at the unique strategies employed by Army and Navy for that season.

In 2023, college football fans in New England will get an up-close look when, for the first time in the 124-year history of the series, Army and Navy will faceoff at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough.

The 2023 installment of Army-Navy will mark only the third time this historic matchup has taken place outside of the mid-Atlantic region. The year also features several notable historical milestones for the Commonwealth, including the 250th anniversary of the Boston Tea Party, taking place just one week after the 2023 Army-Navy Game.

Massachusetts was the birthplace of the National Guard in 1636, as well as the birthplace of both the United States Army and United States Navy in 1775. The Bay State is also home to the Charlestown Navy Yard, one of the six original Navy shipyards in the country, as well as the USS Constitution, the oldest commissioned naval vessel afloat.

Additionally, the first battles of the American Revolution, the Battles of Lexington and Concord, took place in Massachusetts.

The 2022 matchup is scheduled for Saturday at 3 p.m., and will take place at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia.

Limited tickets for the 2023 Army-Navy Game presented by USAA will go on sale via Army West Point and the Naval Academy in early 2023.
