ESPN Radio and Good Karma Sports today announced the return of ESPN Radio’s College Football Campus Tour. This year, the tour is powered by Bloom Energy and brought to fans by Manscaped, Monster Energy and SiriusXM. Leading directly into the featured ESPN Radio game of the week, the Campus Tour brings a national pregame broadcast and interactive Fan Zone experience to some of the biggest college football matchups of the 2026 season.
The tour will make 10 campus stops across the country, beginning Saturday, Sept. 5, in Baton Rouge, La., when Clemson takes on LSU. Additional stops throughout the season include College Station, Texas; Louisville, Ky.; State College, Pa.; Gainesville, Fla.; Austin, Texas; Oxford, Miss.; and a return to Baton Rouge, with additional tour locations and matchups to be announced.
At each stop, ESPN Radio hosts Jonathan Zaslow and Amber Wilson will broadcast live for at least two hours leading up to kickoff. The show will air nationally across most ESPN Radio stations, SiriusXM Channel 80, the ESPN App and ESPN streaming platforms. Fans can also listen live on ESPN Radio.
Highlighted by the live broadcast, ESPN Radio’s College Football Campus Tour powered by Bloom Energy will feature an interactive Fan Zone designed to create a vibrant game-day destination where fans can experience the excitement of college football through interactive activities, music, giveaways, special guests and opportunities to celebrate each school’s traditions and spirit.
Good Karma Sports, in partnership with ESPN Audio, will lead event operations and execution for the tour, bringing together its expertise across experiential marketing, live events, media, content and fan engagement to create a unique experience at each stop.
