Presidents Club | KU Football Pregame Tailgates

We are thrilled to share that game day tailgates are returning to 1266 Oread Avenue! The Jayhawk Welcome Center and Adams Alumni Center will once again be filled with the spirit, energy, and traditions that make fall Saturdays in Lawrence so special.

 

If you’ve ever tailgated with us at the Adams Alumni Center, you know how meaningful those gatherings were, where familiar faces and new friends came together to celebrate KU. This season, we’re bringing that nostalgic spirit back in a modern, elevated setting, thanks to the Jayhawk Welcome Center.

 

Tailgate Details:

  • Doors open three hours before kickoff
  • Tailgates conclude one hour prior to kickoff
  • Held inside the Adams Alumni Center

 

As a valued Presidents Club donor, you’ll enjoy exclusive access to our Courtright Pub area and receive complimentary food and beverages at tailgates this season.
