HBCU Homecoming Events
Although most alumni, students, and community members attend homecoming to watch football, there are plenty of events that you can attend during the week to learn more about your HBCU’s history, traditions, and culture. Whether you’re interested in Greek life, parades, or the homecoming coronation, you can find the best events by checking your school’s calendar.
Did you know? – Southern University selects one student to serve as Miss Southern University New Orleans every year. Her Royal Court inspires other students to participate in all of the events that take place during homecoming.
Alumni Events
Homecoming is not just for students! Alumni from across the world travel to HBCUs to celebrate homecoming with their friends, family members, and former professors. In addition to batch events, many HBCUs hold barbecues, concerts, and fundraisers to give their alumni an amazing experience.
Food, Fun, & College Gear
Whether you’re interested in amazing food or college swag, the vendors that participate in homecoming are a vital part of your experience. From t-shirts to custom bags, shoes, and hats, these retailers can help you represent your school on game day.
