Description:
The Hokie Village Fan Festival will be held on Saturday, September 2, 2023 before the Virginia Tech football game against Old Dominion University at Moseley Turf Practice Field beside Thompson Field and across from Lane Stadium on the campus of Virginia Tech.

Jimmy Mowery is a pop / rock musician from Myrtle Beach, South Carolina and was Top 24 on Season 16 of "The Voice".

He started performing while in high school as a member of local bands and received some notoriety as a member of Like a Movie that was signed to a recording contract and toured the country before the band broke up.

The record label then flew him to Nashville, TN to work with other songwriters to pursue a solo music career. Instead he started another band Wake The Coast who had limited success before disbanding due the band members being scattered across multiple states.

Jimmy moved to Myrle Beach, South Carolina with his girlfriend, who's now his wife, and played 200+ shows a year across South Carolina, North Carolina and Georgia. He's self-released two EP’s and four singles so far made it to the Top 24 on Season 16 of NBC’s The Voice.

Offering a family-friendly atmosphere, Hokie Village features inflatables, tailgating games, concessions, music and appearances by Virginia Tech student-athletes, including the Spirit Squads and HokieBird.

Hokie Village will also be the home of a beer garden as a pregame entertainment option for fans looking for easily accessible family friendly tailgating options. As it is a controlled area, fans cannot bring in beer from outside of Hokie Village nor leave Hokie Village without consuming their beverages.

Admission is free and all are welcome.

The Hokie Village will be held on the turf soccer practice field beside Lane Stadium and in front of Thompson Field and can be accessed by both the Beamer Way gate entrance and the Thompson Field entrance.

Note: Hokie Sports had initially incorrectly set the end time for Hokie Village as 6:30 PM. It has now been updated to 7:15 PM.
