Hosted by the HU Movemakers and the Alumni Host Committee

Last year we had over 15,000 RSVPs and 5,000 attendees! Avoid the lines and arrive early! Join us for the ultimate outdoor tailgate and block party experience — happening before, during, and after the football game! This vibrant celebration will bring together Howard and Morgan State alumni and friends from across the country for an unforgettable afternoon of DJs, cocktails, food trucks, and great vibes.

Taking place at an 11,000-square-foot outdoor venue built around a refurbished 5000-series Metro railcar at the Rhode Island Avenue Metro station, this arts-focused cultural space is designed to connect the community and celebrate the rich history of Washington, DC.
