Student organizations, businesses, non-profit organizations, and Virginia Tech departments will offer food, games, free giveaways and volunteer service information at booths around the Virginia Tech Drillfield. Gobblerfest also includes food vendors, amusement rides, live entertainment, and opportunities to meet new people and discover all that the university and New River Valley communities have to offer students. The event is free and open to the public. Gobblerfest was conceived in the fall of 2008 as a festival welcoming people to the Blacksburg community. Gobblerfest is rain or shine event.
