The clear bag policy will be in effect.


Fan Day will be the first Saturday practice of fall camp, marking one of the first on-field practice sessions for the 2024 season.


In the case of inclement weather, Fan Day will be cancelled. If the weather is in question on the day of the event, check ukathletics.com and the @UKathletics X, formerly Twitter for updates on Saturday.


Fans will be asked to stay behind the rope line on the perimeter of the practice field, which will be controlled by UK event management staff.


Free Kentucky football posters for the 2024 season, presented by Kroger, will be available at Fan Day. The UK Bookstore will be selling UK merchandise in the plaza as well.


UK’s ticket sales staff will be available to discuss ticket packages for the 2024 season with interested fans.


UK concessions will sell pre-packaged snacks and bottled water.


The upcoming schedule is highlighted by eight home games, including four straight to start the season, with contests against Southern Miss (Aug. 31), South Carolina (Sept. 7), Georgia (Sept. 14)  and Ohio (Sept. 21). Kentucky’s first road test will be at Ole Miss on Sept. 28, which will air on ABC or ESPN, before enjoying the first of two bye weeks in Week 6.


The Wildcats have been to eight consecutive bowl games. Big Blue Nation’s impact on the program is impactful. Kentucky is 39-17 at Kroger Field over the last eight seasons.
