AG Day is a huge tailgate event held prior to a New Mexico State University Aggie football game. The 11th Annual AG Day is Saturday, Nov. 9, 2024, from 1 to 4 p.m. prior to the NMSU vs. Western Kentucky football game at Aggie Memorial Stadium. Kickoff is at 4 p.m.. Nov. 9 is Homecoming, so there will be plenty of excitement surrounding the football game that day and week.
Located in the south Pan Am Center lot and the northeast Aggie Memorial Stadium lot, AG Day focuses on family fun and the importance of agricultural products, services and jobs in New Mexico. The event features food sampling, educational booths, and much more. Booths feature family- and kid-friendly agricultural learning and awareness activities.
AG Day was held for seven consecutive years, from 2013 to 2019. It was not held in 2020 but resumed in 2021.
Here’s to the Aggies – and to New Mexico agriculture!
