Army-Navy football games will tour the Northeast over the next five years, the institutions announced Wednesday afternoon.
Games are scheduled through 2027 with stops in or near Boston, Washington, Baltimore, New York and Philadelphia.
“Our destinations over the next five years provide the Academies with an opportunity to share the economic impact, history and tradition of Army-Navy with a number of communities in diverse geographic areas,” Navy Athletic Director Chet Gladchuk said in a statement.
Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass., home of the New England Patriots, will host Dec. 9, 2023. This will be the first time the game is played in that region and will coincide with the 250th anniversary of the Boston Tea Party.
