The annual Crawfish Boil is back and bigger and better than ever! Coinciding with the last day of class for the spring semester, UAB is bringing a state fair experience to the Campus Green, featuring rides, games, fair food, and live entertainment.

Entry is free for UAB students and $10 for UAB employees with a valid ONE Card (includes a wristband for food, games, and rides).

Food:

Enjoy crawfish and classic fair favorites like mini donuts, corn dogs, cotton candy, and more. A wristband grants access to a serving of crawfish and three food vendors. Additional food and drinks can be purchased with credit cards or Blazer Bucks.

Games & Novelties:

Test your skills at Wack-a-Mole, skee ball, and water gun races, or enjoy yard games, a photo booth, and a caricature artist. Each wristband includes access to two games or novelties.
