Labor Day Weekend 2026 is turning out to be an exciting time for the Black community and Black vacationers who are planning to be in Arizona!

Arizona State will host the Morgan State Bears at Mountain America Stadium in Tempe on Saturday, Sept. 5!

The 2026 Arizona State-Morgan State contest will mark the first-ever meeting between the two schools on the gridiron. Morgan State University is a public Historically Black Research University located in Baltimore. Morgan State is also my wife’s Alma mater!

The Arizona Black Rodeo hosted by Black Rodeo USA will also be in Scottsdale during Labor Day Weekend 2026!
