Jan 19, 2026
From: 3:00 PM to 7:30 PM
A pregame tailgate brings Championship Game Weekend energy straight to Hard Rock Stadium as University of Miami fans gather for a College Football Playoff celebration ahead of kickoff.
Presented by BLVD, this open-air tailgate takes over the Orange Lot with live DJ sets, complimentary burgers and hot dogs, and free drinks while supplies last. Music by Joshua Pagan and Drew keeps the atmosphere high as fans rep their colors, connect with fellow Hurricanes supporters and gear up for the biggest game of the season. Merch and gift card giveaways add to the festive buildup leading into the National Championship.
The UM Official Tailgate: MLK Day takes place Monday, January 19, from 3 p.m. until kickoff. The event is open to all ages, with no ID required.
