Military Bowl Week Events

(Excerpted from press release)

This year's Military Bowl, featuring Maryland vs East Carolina on December 29th at RFK Stadium continues to draw attention.

Growing into one of the mid-atlantic region’s premier and most anticipated college football events, the Military Bowl presented by Northrop Grumman includes week long activities that include the Military Bowl Battle of the Bands and after party.

These events join the Military Bowl Official Tailgate Party and the Military Bowl presented by Northrop Grumman as official bowl week activities.

“Our goal is to grow the bowl week experience each year and these new events build upon the success of last year’s sold-out Official Tailgate Party,” said Steve Beck, executive director of the Military Bowl. “Bowl Week is intended to be affordable, family fun, culminating with a competitive match-up at RFK Stadium and an after party that puts the stamp on a fun-filled week in our nation’s capital.”

Meet and greet the teams this week as the teams arrive. Alumni, football fans and residents are invited to greet each team's players, coaches and administrators.

Both teams have exhausted their allottment of 10,000 tickets each. Remaining Military Bowl tickets can be purchased at Ticketmaster.com

The official game kicks off at 2:30 p.m.
