The New York Football Giants launched their 100th season celebration with the unveiling of their 100 seasons logo, along with a full slate of activations to honor this historic milestone.
The commemorative logo was created to showcase the franchise's rich history with the background shield inspired by the shape of the Polo Grounds, the team's first home in 1925 – and with the zeros designed in the outline of Giants Stadium. At the base is a re-creation of the team's classic skyline logo, representing every player who has worn the Giants uniform. The player is overlaid on a football, which is named "The Duke" in honor of Wellington Mara and features eight laces to symbolize the team's eight NFL championships.

Giants 100: A Night with Legends
In the Theater at Madison Square Garden, the Giants hosted "A Night with Legends" presented by Verizon, the kickoff to the 2024 season, the 100th in the franchise's history.
Perhaps the largest group of Giants icons to gather in one place at one time were cheered in a theater packed with Giants fans who came to thank their heroes for eight championships, including four Super Bowl victories, and countless priceless memories.
100th Season Collection
A new collection of 100th season Giants merchandise, including helmets, hats, t-shirts, sweatshirts and collectibles are now available at the Giants online shop. Merchandise will also be available during the season at MetLife Stadium.
COMING THIS SEASON
100th Season Theme Day at Yankee Stadium
To celebrate the 18 years the Giants played at Yankee Stadium (1956-1973), which included the 1956 NFL championship, on August 4, when the New York Yankees host the Toronto Blue Jays, the first 18,000 fans will receive an Eli Manning Yankees bobblehead featuring the 100th season logo, courtesy of Dunkin'. Prior to the game, Manning will throw out the ceremonial first pitch.
100th Season Book
An official 100th season book, New York Football Giants: The People, The Moments, The Traditions, will be available exclusively at the Giants online shop in September. The book explores the team's greatest players, unforgettable games and stories that have defined the franchise for the last century.
"The Duke" Documentary
This fall, NFL Network will premiere "The Duke" – a documentary look at the life of Wellington Mara and how the Giants' patriarch helped transform the National Football League from a 1930's afterthought into America's Game. Mara was present for the Giants first game in 1925, became the team's co-owner at age 14 and led the franchise for many years with his brother Jack until Wellington's passing in 2005.
The NFL Films produced documentary will show how so much of what makes today's game larger than life – The Draft, Player Evaluation, In-Game Coaching Adjustments, the Wilson Football, Televised Games, Players Wired for Sound – would never have happened without the man his players called "The Duke."
In The Community
The Giants Foundation will continue its commitment to making a positive impact in the tri-state area by pledging one million dollars in donations through ten $100,000 grants. These grants will be awarded to long-time charitable partners of TGF to reinforce the Giants' commitment to their cause. Each recipient organization will be highlighted at a Giants home game this season. Additionally, the Giants will make a minimum of 100 in-person community visits in 2024.
On August 1, to honor the franchise's official date of founding on August 1, 1925, the Giants will visit the historic site where their first home, the Polo Grounds, once stood and host a community event for the residents of the Polo Grounds Towers in Washington Heights, NY.
Throughout August, a 100th season branded caravan presented by Hackensack Meridian Health will make surprise visits in the community with Giants alumni and the G-Line.
