The Emerald Isle Classic in Dublin, Ireland between the Navy Midshipmen and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish will kick off at 9 a.m. ET on September 1 according to a tweet by CBS Sports college football reporter Brett McMurphy.

The game will be played at Aviva Stadium in Dublin. This stadium was opened in 2010 and has a capacity of 50,000.

This is not the first time that both teams have played each other in Ireland. On November 3, 1996, Notre Dame crushed Navy in Dublin, 54-27 at Croke Park in front of a crowd of 38,651 in the Shamrock Classic.

More information on the event as well as travel packages for both Navy and Notre Dame fans are available on the official website for the Emerald Isle Classic.
