What other attractions are there besides the concert?

Although the main attraction at Bulldog Bash™ is the music from several
performers, there are other aspects to the event that create the fun, festival
atmosphere. The event also features our Vendor Area, comprised of various
companies, organizations, and restaurants who fill the Cotton District with
shoppers and great smells of fresh cooked food. The DawgRally moves down
from the Junction to the Cotton District for fans to support their Dawgs
before this year’s game against the University of Alabama. Following the
DawgRally, our annual FanFare takes place, which is made up of multiple
inflatables and family fun activities. Bulldog Bash™ is truly a night for
both friends and family.
