    It's officially the last day of the last month of 2024 without college football. We're coming up on the best season of the year: Football season. There's nothing better than spending fall weekends throwing some food on the grill, cracking open some cold ones, and spending the whole weekend on the couch watching football. Man I can't wait. And what better way to kick off college football season than with some of the best in country music? The 2nd Annual Louisiana's Sugar Bowl Country Kickoff, celebrating the start of the college football season, is taking over New Orleans on Labor Day weekend for a massive event filled with country music and festivities for fans - and if you haven't already, you're going to want to
    get your tickets soon . Eric Church will headline the Saturday, August 31st event with a concert at the Caesars Superdome, and he'll be joined by Thomas Rhett, Jon Pardi and Ashley McBryde rounding out an absolutely STACKED lineup. But that's not all: Festivities for Louisiana's Sugar Bowl Country Kickoff on Saturday will begin at Champions Square with NewOrleans.com Tailgate Town hosted by New Orleans & Company, a football-themed interactive experience located right next to the Dome, so there will be plenty to check out before you head in for the show. The Louisiana's Sugar Bowl Country Kickoff is now in its second year, and last year's edition headlined by Garth Brooks & Lainey Wilson featured one of the largest concert crowds in Superdome history - so Allstate Sugar Bowl CEO Jeff Hundley is pumped to once again bring the party to New Orleans:
    “The first-ever Sugar Bowl Country Kickoff was a tremendous success and featured one of the largest concert crowds in Superdome history. We’re thrilled this year to welcome four outstanding country music artists to New Orleans for the second annual event.  It should be a great show and, given the stature of these artists, will be a nice shot in the arm for the tourism economy.” Tickets for Louisiana's Sugar Bowl Country Kickoff are on sale now and going QUICK, so if want to be a part of the biggest college football kickoff party in the country, go ahead and get your tickets now by clicking here .

I've spent quite a few Labor Day weekends in New Orleans, and trust me when I say there's no better place for a long weekend party. Throw in some college football and country music, and it looks like I'm going to be heading to the Big Easy once again this year to Laissez Les Bons Temps Rouler. Hope to see you there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1h5rRoc5194
