December 7-8, 2023
The community is invited to come to Patriot Place to interact with the US Army, US Navy and sponsors of the 2023 Army-Navy Game presented by USAA. Fans will be able to take pictures of US Army and US Navy assets such as Army tanks and Navy boats, and activations by Army-Navy Game sponsors USAA, Chevrolet, the Exchange, Palantir and Duke Cannon. On Thursday, fans also can watch the Patriots vs Steelers game on a large videoboard in the fan festival (Enel Plaza). On both nights, fans will be able to walk to the Gillette Stadium concourse to take pictures of the Army-Navy Game branding on the field and on the digital boards. Fans interested in Army-Navy Game merchandise are encouraged to visit the Patriots ProShop while attending the fan festival.
The Thursday and Friday fan festival activities are free and open to the public. On Saturday, December 9, only fans with game tickets will be able to access the fan festival and ProShop.
The 2023 installment of Army-Navy marks the first time in the 124-year history of America’s Game that it will be played in New England, and only the third time it will take place outside of the mid-Atlantic region (Chicago in 1926 and Pasadena, Calif. in 1983). To add to the historic occasion, the Commander-in-Chief’s trophy will be on the line during this year’s game, with Army capturing the trophy outright with a victory, and Navy earning a share of the trophy with a win on Dec. 9. First awarded in 1972, the prestigious Commander-in-Chief’s trophy is earned each year by whichever of the service academies (Air Force, Army and Navy) notches the better head-to-head record in their respective annual matchups.
In a fitting year for Massachusetts to host America’s Game, 2023 features several notable milestones for the Commonwealth and the United States, including the 250th anniversary of the Boston Tea Party, taking place just one week after the 2023 Army-Navy Game. Hosting America’s Game also adds another chapter to Massachusetts’ and New England’s rich history with the Army, Navy and United States as a whole. 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.
