Gillette Stadium opened in 2002, replacing the adjacent Foxboro Stadium. The first official event at the stadium was a New England Revolution soccer game on May 11, 2002. The stadium was originally known as CMGI Field before the naming rights were bought by Gillette after the “dot-com” bust. Although Gillette was acquired by Procter & Gamble in 2005, the stadium retains the Gillette name.

Gillette Stadium offers a huge variety of food options. Including Ale House, serving domestic and craft beer, pretzels, and pizzas. Tenders & Wings serving chicken tenders. Lighthouse Grill offers chicken tenders, hot dogs, steak sandwiches, French Fries, and more.
