The Game: Harvard-Yale

Each year, Harvard and Yale vie for bragging rights in a football rivalry dating back to 1875. As the second-oldest rivalry in college football, the Harvard-Yale game is more than just a football game. It’s The Game.

Join us for the return of Harvard-Yale! The 138th playing of The Game will take place at Harvard Stadium on Saturday, November 19. Whether joining in person or attending one of the many viewing parties, alumni from across the globe will be coming together to cheer on the Crimson.

Ticket sales for the Harvard–Yale football game are controlled by Harvard Athletics. As expected, current ticket availability is very limited and The Game will sell out. For more information visit tickets.gocrimson.com or call 617-495-2211.

For information about road closures, stadium policies, and all things related to game day, visit the Harvard Athletics website.
