Football at the Wharf

Orange Beach, Ala. — (GSN) — Game Day on the Green is back at The Wharf in Orange Beach, giving football fans along the Alabama Gulf Coast a reason to get excited. The popular outdoor watch party returns to Portside on Main for another college football season. The event will run every Saturday throughout the fall. It offers a mix of sports, food, drinks, and lawn games for fans of all ages.


The event is held at the Wharf, 23101 Canal Road, in Orange Beach.


Game Day on the Green transforms Portside on Main's outdoor space into a large-scale college football watch party each week. A giant LED screen broadcasts the season's biggest college football matchups. The open green space gives families and groups room to spread out and enjoy the atmosphere.


Between plays, guests can enjoy lawn games such as cornhole, giant Jenga, and Connect Four. These activities are designed to keep fans entertained throughout the day. The event is family-friendly, and organizers encourage guests to bring picnic blankets and arrive early to secure a good spot.


Several merchants at The Wharf are participating in the weekly event with deals and specials. Tee Off is offering $4 domestic cans, $4 Michelob Ultra drafts, $30 beer towers, $30 six-beer buckets, and $4 house wines. Alabama Sweet Tea Company is running a buy-one-get-one-free promotion on 32-ounce glass jars of tea.


Every Saturday, customers who spend $150 or more can receive a free Little Sunshine football as part of the Pink Play of the Day promotion. High Cotton Bath Co. is offering a free two-ounce custom scent spray with the purchase of any four-ounce or larger custom scent product.


The event is a perfect way to enjoy the final weekends of summer while kicking off football season. Whether someone is a devoted fan, a foodie, or just looking for a lively outing, Game Day on the Green offers something for everyone. The event runs each Saturday throughout the college football season at Portside on Main.
