Our Story
Gameday Tailgate Experience (“GTE”) is a unique transformation of an already adored national past time—tailgating at sporting events. GTE is a full service tailgate event that aggregates all of the individualized components of the typical tailgate and provides fans with a one stop, one price, all-inclusive pre-game event on a scale that has never been seen before. GTE partners with well-established vendors to supply fans with food, beverages, entertainment and a designated tented area to gather and enjoy tailgating among fellow supporters. GTE eliminates the hassle of organizing all the moving parts and separate expenses for individual fan tailgates, while maintaining the camaraderie and festive nature that make tailgating such an indispensable aspect of going to sporting events.

"As part of my job, I travel all the country to different sporting events and I have never seen anything like Gameday Tailgate Experience. Because of that, when I was first approached about GTE, I had to get involved. It's exactly what the tailgate scene was missing and GTE does it right! High energy, overflowing drinks, great food, celebrities and athletes--all for one low price. What more could you ask for? GTE is the perfect way to kick-off your game day!"
"Gameday Tailgate Experience is an incredible event for sports fans and businesses alike. The staff at GTE really provides an amazing value to its partners, offering them the ability to network as well as enjoy themselves in a relaxed atmosphere that is hard not to appreciate. Every detail of the events are well executed - from the layout, vendor locations, food and beverage too.
“Gameday Tailgate Experience is a unique concept that brings the best elements of a great tailgating event (passionate fans, great food, ex-players and sports personalities, and entertainment) in one location. It’s a great value for consumers who don't have to do anything other than show up and have fun with their friends. For brand owners, it’s also a great value vs setting up your own tailgating event at a significant cost vs a turnkey event where GTE takes care of all the logistics for the brand.
“The GTE team blew us away at the Jacksonville/New England tailgate. Their event provided a convenient location right near the stadium, a great spread of food, full bar, live entertainment, and celebrity hosts all at a GREAT value. If you’re looking for a fun, stress-free tailgate experience you’ve got to get in touch with them!”
“Gameday Tailgate Experience is one of the best tailgating experiences a fan of any NFL team could attend. I was jacked up when I hosted the Event for the New York Jet fans! There were hundreds and hundreds of fans eating, drinking, and partying before our game against the Jacksonville Jaguars! We were rocking Jets chants one after the other. The atmosphere was a true football fans dream. I highly recommend GTE for all fan bases; you will love it! I look forward to hosting in the future and hope to see all of you there!!!”
“Gameday Tailgate Experience knows how to throw a party! Good food, great music, and all you could possibly want to drink... What more could you ask for?? The coolest part of the tailgate was interacting with former Steeler Isaac Redman. I highly recommend this tailgate to any football fan!”
“The Gameday Tailgate Experience at Jaguars stadium was unlike any other. I am a diehard Redskins fan and have been all my life but have never experienced a tailgate party with other teams fans who were as welcoming and as friendly as the Jacksonville Jaguars. I appreciate the entire staff for inviting me and I look forward to partying with you all again in the future.”
"The experience was one of the best tailgates I've ever attended; everything was coordinated perfectly from the time entering with security, checking Id's, waiters/waitresses walking around with drinks, the great food, picture booths, and the big name sponsors."
