Memphis sports fans gear up for college football

Football has always been a part of Memphis culture, and locals are already preparing for the annual Southern Heritage Classic slated to take place in early autumn.

The Southern Heritage Classic is now in its 36th year, and this year's event is expected to draw a sizeable crowd. According to past statistics, between 40,000 and 60,000 fans could be attending.

Although the football game is the main attraction, organizers have also billed the Southern Heritage Classic as a celebration of local culture, and an opportunity for college alumni to network with one another.

This year’s competition features the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff Golden Lions facing off against the Alcorn State University Braves.

Sports-related events such as this will use several advertising methods to keep fans informed. Examples include Stationery printers to create Banners.

The 2025 Southern Heritage Classic is being held at Simmons Bank Liberty Stadium on Saturday, September 27 at 6:00 PM. The address is 335 Glenn Rogers Sr. Street. Tickets are priced between $29 and $64, although these may be subject to change.

Due to ongoing renovations at Simmons Bank Limited Stadium, football fans are advised that seating is limited. Securing a spot in advance with sites such as Ticketmaster, or visiting the official website of the Southern Heritage Classic, is therefore recommended.
