Offering something for the entire family, Eagles Flight Night! will feature:
- a dazzling fireworks display
- player intros
- interviews and behind the scenes footage
- live practice on the field
- free giveaways
- player-autographed merchandise for sale
- interactive activities
There will also be appearances by Eagles alumni, the team's mascot SWOOP and the Philadelphia Eagles Cheerleaders.
