Get ready to see red in downtown Green Bay on Labor Day weekend.

The Broadway District will host a community celebration for Wisconsin Badgers fans in town for the Sunday, Sept. 6, game against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish at Lambeau Field

Badger Bash North will take place Saturday, Sept. 5, and will be highlighted by a parade of the University of Wisconsin Marching Band across the Ray Nitschke Memorial Bridge, fireworks over the Fox River and music by Green Bay's Fun with Atoms and the Fox Valley's FBI & The Untouchable Horns.

The free event will also have a Badgers program featuring Matt Lepay, the longtime radio play-by-play announcer for UW football and men’s basketball. There will be food trucks, beverage tents, licensed Badgers merchandise, face painting, balloon animals, a bounce house and a Family Football Combine with a quarterback toss, 40-yard dash, vertical jump and more.

The event is the joint effort of Wisconsin Athletics, On Broadway Inc., the city of Green Bay and other community partners.

More details of Badger Bash North will be announced in the coming months, including the grand marshal for the marching band parade and plans for a Badgers Give Back component.

Notre Dame will be the home team for neutral-site game against the Badgers at 6:30 p.m. Sept. 6 at Lambeau Field. NBC will broadcast the game, which happens ahead of the start of the Green Bay Packers season.

It will be the second major college football game played at Lambeau. Wisconsin hosted the LSU Tigers on Sept. 3, 2016. The night before that game, Titletown Brewing Co. and the UW Alumni Association hosted the official Badgers pep rally with the UW Marching Band and fireworks.
