GorillaFest Corporate Tailgate


PSU allows groups or individuals to host private parties in dedicated spaces during home football games. These spaces are available east of the brown parking lot and immediately north and south of the hike and bike trail between Carnie Smith Stadium and Weede Athletic Complex.

Spaces may be reserved after April 1 each year and are done on a first-come-first-serve basis by calling PSU Alumni & Constituent Relations at 620-235-4758 or submitting a request form to Stacie Nelson.
