We will have food trucks, an ice skating rink, henna tattoos, live music, and much more. In addition to this new event, we will continue with some of our favorite traditions, such as the Homecoming Bonfire on Thursday evening and our Homecoming Tailgate on Saturday before the first game on Saturday.鈥�
