DawgNation Invasion 2026: UGA vs. UF

The DawgNation Invasion is back in Atlanta as the Dawgs get ready to take on Florida and this year, we’re bringing the party to COSM Atlanta, one of Atlanta’s newest gameday destinations, right across from Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Join the DawgNation team and fellow Dawgs for a full afternoon of food, drinks, live programming, gameday conversation and entertainment before kickoff. With the rooftop at COSM as our backdrop, expect a new kind of Invasion experience with plenty of energy, Georgia pride and a prime location in the middle of all the gameday action.

Heading to the game? We’ll wrap up with time to make your way across the street. Sticking around? Keep the gameday going at Cosm and watch the Dawgs take on Florida — it’s all included with your ticket.

Come early. Bring the energy. Party with DawgNation before the big game.
