Jonesboro, AR — (Contributed) — July 10, 2025 — The Arkansas State Athletics Department announced Thursday it restructured its premier tailgating area, Dustin White Realty Tailgate City at Mike Watson Park, in order to provide fans with the best opportunity for an enhanced tailgating experience on A-State Football game days.
While fans can still expect the same amenities, entertainment value and turnkey opportunities they’ve enjoyed in the past, pricing has been significantly lowered in most cases and the Red Wolves Foundation will manage all aspects of Tailgate City while placing a high priority on fan engagement and the ability for fans to make independent tailgating choices in the area.
For the first time in the history of Tailgate City, fans will be able to purchase a 10×10 plot without parking and be able to independently control the entire set up for their game-day tailgate. The additional season options, with 2025 vs 2024 pricing for reference, are below:

Tailgate City is located just west of Centennial Bank Stadium and will again feature a variety of entertainment options, including the Hijinx Kids Zone, gaming areas and Red Wolf Walk.
Fans can enjoy all the festivities while taking part in Red Wolf Walk, where the A-State football team will travel through the heart of Tailgate City with the A-State spirit squads on its way into the stadium two hours and 15 minutes before game time. The Sound of the Natural State and spirit squads will also perform prior to the start of Red Wolf Walk.
The Textbook Brokers Team Shop will open three hours before kickoff and is located at Centennial Bank Stadium’s main gates – just a short walk from Tailgate City. Additionally, fans will be able to take advantage of a new photo opportunity near the stadium entrance, where a bench featuring a bronze statue of Howl has been installed.
Arkansas State will kick off its 2025 season at home on Aug. 30, when the Red Wolves host Southeast Missouri at 6 p.m. Season tickets may be purchased by calling the Red Wolves Foundation at 870-972-2401 or online.
Among season ticket options, a Family 4-Pack promotion exists that includes four tickets in the upper east stands for $170. The Family 4-Pack promotion is only available for purchase by calling the Red Wolves Foundation at 870-972-2401.
