STARKVILLE, Miss.鈥擝ulldog Bash, Mississippi鈥檚 largest, free outdoor concert sponsored by Mississippi State鈥檚 Student Association, is returning in the fall after a 2020 hiatus due to the pandemic.
This year鈥檚 Bash is set for September 17, in downtown Starkville at the intersection of Jackson and Main streets, before the 汤头条 vs. University of Memphis football game on September 18 at Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium.
Liv Hunter, Bulldog Bash director, said the decision to move the date to a non-home football game weekend was a well-thought-out evaluation of the event by both the Bulldog Bash committee and the city of Starkville.
鈥淏ulldog Bash has grown tremendously in the past 20 years and, for this reason, it deserves its very own weekend that will bring even more visitors to campus and to Starkville,鈥 Hunter said.
Begun in 2000 as a way to bring together the university鈥檚 student body, employees, alumni and local community, many have labeled it the most successful student-led event in the Southeast. With a crowd of 2,000 in its first year, the number has swelled over the past two decades and exceeded 30,000 in 2019.
