About the Club

Twin Cities Gator Club is the official Gator Club for University of Florida alumni and fans in the Twin Cities region. The club has been active in the Twin Cities since the early 90's and we get together for various events throughout the year.

Our most popular events are football Saturdays (of course) with viewing parties now located at First Draft Taproom and Kitchen in Minneapolis - 324 N 6th Ave, Minneapolis, MN 55401. Gator Basketball is looking good for the upcoming year, and we hope to have a few events centered around that in the future.

Outside of sports, the club gets together for various other events, including networking happy hours and International Gator Day, a day where we can show pride in the Gator Nation by volunteering in our community!

Club events are always family-friendly, and our membership is represented throughout various generations.

Join us!

We’re on a membership drive! Wanna be an official member of the Twin Cities Gator Club? You already are if you are a member of the University of Florida Alumni Association.  

Membership in the University of Florida Alumni Association provides you many Gator advantages, discounts and more importantly supports numerous University of Florida programs.  Exciting advantages include:

UF TODAY magazine, a UF wall calendar, the weekly GatorNews e-mail newsletter, access to the Online Alumni Directory and much more.  Your membership will support student programs, research, scholarships, and activities on the local and national levels.  Membership in the University of Florida Alumni Association is a great way to stay connected and provide support so please join online today!

Whether you are an alumnus, parent or a friend, you can join the UF Alumni Association at: 

https://connect.ufalumni.ufl.edu/membership/ufaa-membership

And check out the membership benefits. The 15% Gator gear discounts are certainly worthwhile, and the travel discounts are better than some corporate rates.  And for every new member from our area, our club will receive an extra kickback, so you’d be helping out your local Gator brothers and sisters.

But we love and welcome all Gator fans – so check out our Facebook page and calendar for upcoming events and locations. The Twin Cities Gator Club® will welcome you to every event regardless of whether you’re a UFAA member or not!
