PROVO, Utah — Following the success of the Fan Fest in Farmington earlier this month, BYU Athletics travels to southern Utah to host its second spring Fan Fest on Saturday in St. George.
The event runs from 10 a.m.–12:30 p.m. at Sandtown Park (600 N Bluff St, St. George, UT 84770). Athletes from football, women’s soccer, gymnastics and cheer are all scheduled to participate along with Cosmo.
BYUtv will also broadcast live from the Fan Fest in St. George, giving fans not able to attend the chance to follow the Fan Fest from home or on the go. A special one-hour Saturday episode of BYU Sports Nation will be broadcast live on site from Sandtown Park at 10 a.m. MT. Fans attending will also have opportunities to meet BYUtv Sports broadcasters following the show.
Similar to the Cougar Kickoff held in Provo each year in August, BYU Fan Fest events are a tradition that began in 2013 to give Cougar fans in other communities the opportunity to meet and interact with BYU student-athletes.
Saturday's event will provide fans the chance to put their skills to the test doing drills with BYU athletes as well as participate in other games and festivities such as an inflatable obstacle course, bounce houses, lawn games, face painting, caricature artists, ballon artists and pictures with Cosmo.
BYU football ticket giveaways will take place as well as opportunities for fans to win BYU prizes and Nike gear through the skill drills, competitions and activities.
Cougar Club, BYU Alumni, football tickets and tailgating information will be available on site along with BYU Store merchandise and food concessions, including CougarTails and BYU Creamery ice cream. The Fan Fest will be full of music and fun for everyone in the family. See additional details below.
