On Saturday, August 7 from 12:00 pm to 7:00 pm, the Rose Bowl will be open to the public for the first time since the Covid-19 pandemic. The event is free and will include opportunities to hang out, win prizes, and go on tours. The UCLA Band, Alumni Band, and Spirit Squad will be on hand to create a spirited atmosphere.

Fans can start off tailgating in the Bowl’s famed Lot H, and choose to either bring their own food or check out the on site food and beer garden. Season ticket holders can pick up their collector’s pins and fan cutouts if they had been purchased previously.

The new Jordan Brand football uniforms will be on display for fans to check out, and the locker rooms will also be open for tours. Prizes will be given away every hour, including an opportunity to win free season tickets.

To keep fans busy, the Olympics will be shown on the big screen inside the bowl, and there will also be inflatables for the kids and kids at heart. You can even choose to bring your own football and toss it around.

UCLA is requiring fans to RSVP for this free event.

Go Bruins!
