Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)
How do I get to the TCB Tailgate Party?
The TCB Tailgate Party is held inside the Tower Building at Fair Park, Dallas, located at 3809 Grand Ave, Dallas, TX 75210. On game day, please enter via the Cotton Bowl side of the Tower Building, where you can pick up your wristbands at the Will Call desk, located next to the private “MVP GOLD #36 BACK ENTRANCE.”

Are children allowed? ***KID/CHILDREN's BANDS ARE CURRENTLY SOLD OUT THIS YEAR!***
Children are welcome but not strongly encouraged due to limited space inside the Tower Building.
Here are the guidelines for child attendance:
-
Kids 12 and Under: Free entry with a ticketed adult (limit of two kids per invited guest/family).
-
Children 13 and Older: Required to have a wristband, available for a $150.00 donation at the Will Call Desk (subject to availability).
Since space is limited and the event is already SOLD OUT (we are at MAX capacity), you must notify us in advance if you plan to bring children who do not yet have wristbands. We will do our best to accommodate them, but availability cannot be guaranteed.
Is there food at the TCB Tailgate Party?
Yes! A Big Tex-sized lunch buffet and multiple bars serving premium drinks will be available before kickoff and throughout the day — while supplies last.
-
Lunch Buffet Hours: 11:30AM - 2:30PM (Kickoff Time), so make sure to fill your plate before the game starts!
-
After kickoff, a limited selection of food may remain, with snacks and dessert trays available during halftime.
-
All food and beverages are included with your wristband. ***REMINDER: Don't forget to tip our hardworking volunteer bartenders – After all, TCB also stands for “Taking Care of Bartenders!”
Where do I park?
All Fair Park gates will be open for self-parking on game day, but parking fills up fast. For more details and a downloadable parking map, click here.
Does my TCB Tailgate Party ticket grant access to the Texas-OU game?
