The Iowa Shrine Bowl All-Star Classic game is an annual football game played each July featuring 92 of the best football players in the State of Iowa. To date, the Iowa Shrine Bowl has raised nearly $3.8M for Shriners’ Children.
The 52nd playing of Iowa Shrine Bowl will occur on July 20, 2024 at the UNI-Dome in Cedar Falls, Iowa. Players and cheerleaders from across the State of Iowa will attend camp in the days leading up to the game. During camp week, the players and cheer leaders prepare for the game, build lasting friendships, and have opportunities to learn about the impact they can have on less fortunate children. The highlight of Shrine Bowl week is the Shriners’ Children Mini-Camp. Hospital patients from across the Midwest join the players on the UNI Dome field and interact, play games, and share stories. On the eve of the Shrine Bowl game, we celebrate all of the game participants and their families at an Honors Banquet.
The week concludes with a parade on Saturday morning featuring the 2024 Iowa Shrine Bowl King & Queen, the 2024 Shrine Bowl Players, Cheerleaders and Coaches, joined by Shriners from across Iowa. Finally, at 4:00 PM on July 20th is the kick-off of the Iowa Shrine Bowl game.
Shriners’ Children
Funds raised during the Iowa Shrine Bowl are distributed to the Shriners’ Children orthopedic hospitals and burn centers in the Midwest and to each Shrine Center’s Transportation fund to transport patients to and from hospitals and clinics.
