Tom Brady returned to New England back in September. In less than three months, he'll officially be inducted into the Patriots' Hall of Fame.

When Brady returned to Foxborough for the Pats' home opener on September 10, owner Bob Kraft announced that he would be waiving the traditional waiting period and enshrining the legendary quarterback in the team Hall of Fame on June 12, 2024.

Now, we have some more details on the plans for the ceremony, which will be a ticketed event inside Gillette Stadium kicking off at 7 p.m. ET.

"For the first time, the Hall of Fame ceremony will be hosted inside Gillette Stadium to accommodate as many fans as possible," the official Gillette Stadium website says. "The ceremony will be held the evening of June 12, 2024. Patriots executives chose the 12th day of the sixth month as two of the numbers most often associated with Tom Brady’s Patriots career; his six Super Bowl championships and his iconic uniform number, 12."

Kraft originally said he wanted to give Brady a separate night to be celebrated because of how his tenure with the team ended abruptly following the 2019 season.

“Patriots fans didn’t get an opportunity to appropriately thank Tom when he left,” Kraft said back in September. “I wanted to give them that opportunity. Unfortunately, a halftime ceremony just doesn’t provide enough time to honor Tommy the way he deserves.”

The night of June 12 will be an epic one in Patriots history.
