GorillaFest

GorillaFest

GorillaFest is the official PSU tailgate prior to all home football games. Admission is free. Join other fans three hours prior to kick-off in Gorilla Village, east of Carnie Smith Stadium, for:

  • Free kids games and inflatable slides
  • Food vendors
  • Live music
  • Pre game pep rally (approximately 50 minutes prior to kickoff)
  • PSU merchandise

GorillaFest also includes space at each home game for companies or groups to set up large tailgates. Click here for more information.


 

We take GorillaFest on the road each year to Kansas City for The Fall Classic at Arrowhead. In 2011 join us three hours prior to kick-off in the pavillion for food vendors, live music, PSU merchandise and gorilla spirit! A pep rally at 1 pm including the Pride of the Plains Marching Band, Crimson & Gold Dancers and the PSU Spirit Squad will send you into the stadium ready to beat Northwest.

GO GORILLAS!!
