Bobcat families, San Marcos is ready for you.
Texas State Family Weekend is September 25–27, and one of the biggest parts of the weekend happens Saturday when Texas State Football takes on UIW on September 26.
It’s a full weekend of family time, Bobcat traditions, San Marcos favorites, and, of course, football.
If your family is coming to town, get ready to show them what a game day in Bobcat Country is all about.
Welcome to San Marcos, Bobcat Families
Family Weekend is the perfect chance for students to show their families a little more of life at Texas State.
Walk around campus, spend some time by the river, introduce everyone to your favorite San Marcos spots, and take the family pictures you know your parents are going to want.
Then Saturday, it’s time for one of the best parts of being a Bobcat: game day.
Students, parents, siblings, alumni, and fans will come together for a full day of Texas State spirit leading up to kickoff.
Texas State vs. UIW
Everything leads up to Saturday, September 26, when the Bobcats take on the UIW Cardinals at UFCU Stadium.
Before kickoff, get the family together, head to the tailgates, and take in the game-day atmosphere around campus.
As the stadium starts filling up, it’s time to get loud and cheer on the Cats.
Whether this is your family’s first Texas State football game or a tradition you look forward to every season, Family Weekend is the perfect excuse to experience a football Saturday together.
Get the Whole Family Game-Day Ready
Of course, Family Weekend calls for Bobcat gear.
Mom needs a Texas State tee. Dad could use a new hat. Your siblings might suddenly decide they’re Bobcat fans. And there’s always room for another game-day outfit in your own closet.
Stop by Barefoot Campus Outfitter in San Marcos during Family Weekend to get everyone ready for Saturday.
Shop Texas State tees, sweatshirts, hats, accessories, and game-day styles for students, parents, siblings, alumni, and future Bobcats.
Whether everyone coordinates in maroon and gold or picks out their own TXST look, the whole family can head to the game ready to rep the Bobcats.
Make a Weekend of It in San Marcos
Don’t make Family Weekend only about Saturday’s game.
Spend some time around campus. Walk down to the river. Grab something to eat. Show your family your favorite San Marcos spots. Stop by Barefoot. Then get ready for a full Texas State football Saturday.
It’s a chance for families to see the place their Bobcat calls home—and for students to make a few more college memories with the people who helped get them here.
