Giants announce 100th Season Fan Fest presented by Wendy’s

East Rutherford, N.J. – The New York Giants will host their fourth annual Giants Fan Fest, presented by Wendy’s, at MetLife Stadium on Friday, September 6. Fan Fest will kick off the 100th Season Celebration Weekend, a full slate of events in the buildup to the 100th season kickoff.

Giants Fan Fest will be a night of family fun, including Legends autographs, panel discussions, historical exhibits, on-field celebration and appearances by the Top 100 Giants, and a special 100th season drone light and fireworks show to end the evening.

The 100th season drone light show will feature over 500 drones and will highlight the greatest moments in Giants history, including a recreation of the fan-voted number one play in Giants History, “The Helmet Catch.”

“We look forward to continuing our 100th season activations with an expanded Fan Fest which will include a collection of some of the greatest players to ever wear a Giants uniform under one roof and the first-ever drone show at MetLife Stadium. Celebration weekend will be a time for all fans to celebrate the rich history of the New York Football Giants.” Said Nilay Shah, SVP Marketing & Brand Strategy.

The first 10,000 fans through the gates will receive a commemorative 100th Season flag. As presenting partner of Fan Fest, Wendy’s will also be giving out fan prizes and have activities running on the plaza. Fans will be able to experience panel discussions with Giants Legends on top players and moments in Giants history with sessions presented around the building by team partners including Hellmann’s, Pepsi, Teradata and Visa.

Admission to Giants Fan Fest is free, but fans must reserve a ticket to enter. Giants Season Ticket Members will have exclusive early access to claim Fan Fest tickets at 2:00 p.m. on Monday, August 5. The general public will have access to tickets on Wednesday, August 7.
