The University of Memphis is replacing its traditional homecoming parade with a new event called Roar Fest, a campus-wide block party meant to boost engagement among students, alumni, and the community. Scheduled for Oct. 24 at 6 p.m. on the University Center lawn, the event will feature games, inflatables, food trucks, a pep rally, and a special performance by Memphis rapper Al Kapone.
