ND Football Weekends

Notre Dame Football Weekends

Notre Dame Football Weekends are a time honored tradition in South Bend, with a full line-up things to see and do for the whole family so come early and stay late!

Arrive on Friday for the Football Friday Kickoff Luncheon at the Joyce Center, a round of golf at Warren Golf Course or head to downtown South Bend and visit one of the many attractions and museums. On Friday night, the campus lights up with student led pep rally where the Notre Dame cheerleaders, leprechaun, band and pom squad celebrate to the sound of the Notre Dame Victory March.

On Saturday, wake up early for tailgating festivities and then head over to the Irish on the Green, a game day hospitality village. You can also take in a pregame band concert or the team walk to the stadium with the kilted Irish Guard.

After the game, join local fans for a post-game celebration at one of the area's many restaurants or nightlife scenes.

If you haven't made any plans on where to stay during your visit, South Bend offers a variety of hotels and plenty of availability so stay local to get the most out of your football weekend experience!
