UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Penn Staters traveling to Atlanta for the Peach Bowl are encouraged to register online and let the Penn State Alumni Association know you’ll be there. Alumni and fans can register for the Penn State Pep Rally and the pregame tailgate, both hosted by the Alumni Association. To stay informed and cheer the Nittany Lions on before the game even begins, download a printable car sign to display on your drive to Atlanta or on your way to the airport.

The pep rally is free to attend and is set for 3:15-4:15 p.m. Friday, Dec. 29, in the Georgia Ballroom at the Georgia World Congress Center (Building C). The pep rally will feature the Blue Band, Penn State cheerleaders, Lionettes, Nittany Lion, Alumni Association CEO Paul Clifford, Alumni Association President Anand Ganjam, Head Football Coach James Franklin, Penn State President Neeli Bendapudi, and additional special guests.

The morning of the game, there will be a pregame tailgate at Wild Leap, within walking distance of Mercedes-Benz Stadium, where the game will take place. Admission is included for Penn Staters traveling on the Official Penn State Bowl Tour. The tailgate is open to everyone, for an admission cost. Registration for the pregame tailgate will end on Friday, Dec. 22, or when capacity is met, whichever comes first. 

If you’re not traveling to Atlanta, learn how to stay connected and cheer on the Nittany Lions leading up to and during the game. You can join an Alumni Association chapter watch party, sign up to receive a notification when the pep rally livestream begins, and more. Please visit the Alumni Association's game day page for all the details.
