The VOL Walk & Public Autograph Session

The energy really ramps up at 5:15 PM with our very own VOL Walk! Following the walk, the exclusive public autograph session will run from 5:30 PM to 7:00 PM. All fans in attendance will receive a FREE commemorative poster to get signed. Autographs are limited to two items per person to ensure everyone has a fair chance to meet the players.

Please note: The autograph line will officially close at 7:00 PM. No one will be permitted to join the line after this time.

An Orange and White Atmosphere

To set the perfect mood, The Island Show Fountain will feature special performances of “Rocky Top” and “I’m A Vol for Life Y’all” playing throughout the day. Be sure to look up, because The Great Smoky Mountain Wheel will also join the celebration with a special orange-and-white light display!

We have an incredible roster of current and former University of Tennessee football players scheduled to attend.
