The Ultimate Guide to an Auburn Sports Weekend

Jordan-Hare Stadium packed with Auburn fans on a sunny game day

There is nothing quite like the electric atmosphere of a game day in Auburn, Alabama. Whether you're coming to town for a massive football matchup at Jordan-Hare Stadium, a high-energy basketball game at Neville Arena, or a sunny afternoon of baseball at Plainsman Park, an Auburn sports weekend is a bucket-list event. If you are planning a trip to the Loveliest Village on the Plains, here is how to make the most of your visit.

Experience the Magic of Tailgating

Auburn tailgating is legendary. The campus transforms into a massive, welcoming party where fans share barbecue and get pumped up for the game. For the best experience, just walk through campus to soak in the incredible atmosphere. Don't miss Tiger Walk, about two and a half hours before kickoff, when players and coaches walk down Donahue Drive into Jordan-Hare Stadium through a tunnel of thousands of cheering fans. Check the official gameday schedule for the exact time.

Roll Toomer's Corner

Win or lose, heading to Toomer's Corner is an absolute must. If the Tigers secure a victory, the iconic intersection of Magnolia Avenue and College Street turns into a winter wonderland of toilet paper. Grab a world-famous lemonade from Toomer's Drugs and join in the celebration!
