MIAMI, March 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- This year, the stars — and the meatballs — have aligned and Subway's popular "Meatball Monday" deal just got a whole lot meatballier. On March 9, National Meatball Day, Subway is allowing in-the-know consumers to upgrade every six-inch Sub of the Day and Meal of the Day to a footlong for free* as it endeavors to sell 1 million meatballs in a single day. Here's your once-in-a-lifetime chance to be part of the world's first Million Meatball Monday!

Anyone who visits a Subway restaurant on March 9 and purchases a six-inch Meatball Sub as part of either Subway's Sub of the Day or Meal of the Day can upgrade to a footlong for free*, all you need to do is ask. There's no better way to celebrate National Meatball Day than digging into a footlong version of Subway's iconic Meatball Sub for just $4.99**.

"With the calendar coincidence of National Meatball Day falling on Meatball Monday this year, Subway is rolling out the red sauce for meatball lovers with a one-day-only deal that's bound to make history," said Dave Skena, Chief Marketing Officer, North America. "But we need your help to make March 9 the world's first Million Meatball Monday, and to sell more meatballs than every Scandinavian furniture company combined." 

Subway's rotating Meal of the Day lineup includes a six-inch sub for $6.99*** or a footlong for $9.99*** with a choice of two cookies or a bag of chips and a small fountain drink, while Sub of the Day offers a six-inch starting at just $4.99* — both bring fresh flavor and everyday value, all week long.
