We’re bringing a party to Civic Park—and that party starts September 27 when we turn our inaugural select-a-seat event into a one-day music festival with none other than Eugene’s own double-platinum-selling the Daddies headlining!
Footy Fest, an exclusive event for SCFC season ticket deposit holders, will have multiple bands, food trucks, and a kids zone with inflatable games and face painting. The family friendly event will begin at 1:00 p.m. and end at approximately 6:00 p.m.

THE LINEUP
The Daddies, also known as the Cherry Poppin’ Daddies, formed in Eugene in 1989 and rose to fame worldwide with their double-platinum album “Zoot Suit Riot: The Swingin’ Hits of the Cherry Poppin’ Daddies” and its eponymous single. The 2009 Oregon Music Hall of Fame inductees recently released their 12th album, Roma! Roma!, and their Footy Fest appearance is part of a fall slate of shows that will see them perform across the country from New Jersey to California.
Other bands scheduled to perform are instrumentalists Heavenly Oceans, and folk-rockers Parker Galactic.
“We’re excited to have professional soccer in our city next year. I spent many afternoons and evenings watching the Emeralds play at the old Civic Stadium with my family, and I can’t wait to see Sporting Cascades FC there. To headline the team’s first event at the park and play a role in getting people pumped up for what’s destined to be raucous energy every match day is a tremendous honor.”
– The Daddies singer-songwriter Steve Perry.
