New England Revolution News Release


FOXBOROUGH, Mass. - The New England Revolution, in celebration of its 30th season, will host several of the club's all-time greats for 'Alumni Night' on Saturday, August 9, when the Revolution take on fellow original MLS side D.C. United at Gillette Stadium.

As part of the night's festivities, the club will host an all-inclusive 'Meet the Greats' event at the Sports Illustrated Pavilion prior to the match. Revolution fans will enjoy unlimited food, beer, and wine while getting their chance to meet legends representing every era of Revolution soccer, from the inaugural 1996 roster to the club's recent Supporters' Shield triumph. The Far Post Podcast presented by MA250 will host a live show taping inside the Sports Illustrated Pavilion during the event, gathering stories from throughout the club's 30 seasons from several of the notable alumni in attendance.

Ticket packages for 'Meet the Greats' are available now at Revolutionsoccer.net/tickets or by calling 1-877-GET-REVS, starting at $180 for non-members (includes Cross Insurance Club ticket and pregame hospitality with food, beer, and wine) and $80 for Season Members (includes access to pregame event and hospitality but must have separate game ticket). Members will also be able to exchange the equivalent of the number of seats they have in their membership.

Later in the evening, the Revolution alumni will be recognized on the Gillette Stadium field at halftime for their contributions to the club. Additionally, retro viewfinders highlighting fan-favorite moments from the Revolution's illustrious history will be distributed at all ticket gates, while supplies last. Reels will display iconic moments in club history and recognize players from the Revolution All-Time Team that was selected during the club's 25th season celebration in 2020.

Alumni spanning the entire 30-year history of Revolution soccer, including a former MLS MVP, several multi-time MLS All-Stars, Eastern Conference champions, and U.S. Open Cup winners will be in attendance, with more expected to be added in the coming weeks.
