The Munn Tailgate

Introducing new for the 2025 football season, The Munn Tailgate. With parking and tailgating spots, and the addition of the 517 Beer Garden alongside Meijer Fan Fest, The Munn Tailgate promises to become a popular site for Spartan football fans, providing food, beverage and entertainment options for all.
Beginning this season, parking and tailgating will be permitted in the southwest section of Munn Field, with entrance off Birch Road. Cars will require a parking pass distributed by MSU athletics – no general parking is available, and "All-Event" staff parking passes will not be honored due to limited space.
517 Beer Garden
Located directly across from the south entrance to Munn Ice Arena at the north end of Munn Field, the 517 Beer Garden will feature multiple bars and food service areas. A variety of food options will be available for purchase including entrées, snacks and dessert. The bars are slated to serve beer, seltzer and craft cocktails. Non-alcoholic drinks are also available. Patrons will be required to show ID at the time of purchase. To streamline service and reduce wait times, the 517 Beer Garden will operate as a fully cashless experience. Credit cards, debit cards, and mobile payment methods will be accepted.
The 517 Beer Garden is open to all Spartan fans, regardless of parking location, and will begin service four hours prior to kick-off. Service will end 30 minutes prior to kick-off at which times fans should make their way to Spartan Stadium.
Meijer Fan Fest
Meijer Fan Fest, which has activated at Munn Field since 2018, will continue to operate in the northeast corner of Munn Field. Featuring live entertainment and fan activations, including yard games. It's a great family destination on gameday.
