Team Walks

ATLANTA, GA – Aug. 30, 2023

Fans will have an afternoon filled with free activities around Mercedes-Benz Stadium before attending this year’s Aflac Kickoff Game between Louisville vs. Georgia Tech on Sept. 1. The “Capital of College Football” will feature an outdoor extravaganza at Tailgate Town presented by PNC and Team Walks built by The Home Depot to celebrate the start of the season in Atlanta.

Tailgate Town Presented by PNC is the ultimate pregame tailgate destination for Louisville and Georgia Tech fans on game day during Labor Day weekend. Located in International Plaza just outside Mercedes-Benz Stadium, fans can enjoy live entertainment, food and interactive activations, as well as a variety of contests and giveaways.

In addition to Tailgate Town presented by PNC, fans will also have the opportunity to cheer on their team during the Team Walks built by The Home Depot. Players from both teams will make their Team Walks from The Home Depot Backyard and into Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
