Homecoming and Family Weekend
October 4-5, 2024
Calling all Eagles! Join us on October 4-5 for a weekend packed with fun activities for the entire family! Event registration opens in early August.
Calling all Eagles!
Get ready for Homecoming weekend! Activities begin Friday evening with Homecoming Showcase of the Arts and continue throughout all of Saturday, including four athletic events.
This year’s schedule is packed with fun! The Block Party will feature additional food trucks and activities, the second Purple Donut Run has new twists, and instead of breakfast, this year we will have a Homecoming Brunch. You’re also going to want to check out the brand-new Northwestern Marketing, as Eagle owned businesses line Spirit Plaza.
Everything on Saturday, outside of meals, is FREE for UNW alumni, parents, staff and their families! Check in at Eagle Central at the Block Party (in the Moyer parking lot) to get your athletic pass, along with a UNW beanie hat for everyone in your family.
Watch highlights from last year!
