Numerous events are held during Blue-White Weekend, including a carnival, fireworks, food vendors, the student entertainment stage and live music, a parade and the Penn State Idol finals. On gameday, the popular autograph session with the football student-athletes is held prior to kickoff of the Blue-White Game in Beaver Stadium.
Blue-White Weekend has become the university's unofficial annual reunion and attracted record-breaking spring football crowds in excess of 70,000 from 2007-09, topped by 76,500 at the 2009 contest. The past two Blue-White Games have seen rain and cool weather stop the run of record-setting audiences.
