Downtown Tailgate

Downtown Tailgate

Join us for our Downtown Tailgate on September 24 as we block off Henderson St. from vehicle traffic to celebrate this season of Carolina Football and the Chapel Hill community.

Our event will begin three hours before kickoff — at 12:30 p.m. — and wrap up before kickoff at 3:30 p.m.! Enjoy games with friends and family, listen to music from DJ CJ and get ready for Carolina to take on Notre Dame. There will be giveaways, a big screen, and more, with emcee BDaht. Purchase a VIP wristband for $30 and get access to food provided by Linda’s Bar & Grill and other perks!

RSVP on our Facebook Event (It’s free, we’re just following an expected head count!). Henderson Street will be closed for pedestrian traffic only. Paid parking is available along Franklin street, side streets, and parking decks. Find options at parkonthehill.com.

We’ll see you after the game too, as Downtown Live continues in the evening with live music all along Franklin St.

Join us to support our local businesses, enjoy the fall weather, and make the most of the game day experience in downtown Chapel Hill.
