Can you believe it? Baylor Homecoming<\/a> is already just a month away — Nov. 2-7 — so it’s time to make your plans to join the nation’s oldest collegiate homecoming<\/a> (if you haven’t already)!<\/p>\n

Here’s a round-up of what you’ll want to work into your schedule:<\/p>\n

Students, the beginning of the week is all for you, starting Monday night with Homecoming Worship<\/a> (presented by Vertical), followed by Dinner with the Livingstones<\/a> on Tuesday and Mass Meeting<\/a>\u00a0on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Alumni will begin to roll into town Thursday for the\u00a0first of four Pigskin Revue<\/a> performances, and things really ramp up on Friday, Nov. 6, with the 50-year class reunion<\/a>, Singspiration<\/a>, the Royal & Pure Homecoming Stroll-Off<\/a>, Homecoming at the Hurd<\/a>, Bonfire and Pep Rally<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Start your Friday at the Hurd for Homecoming info, photo opps, a poster giveaway, and more, then work your way down Third Street (toward the heart of campus) for an assortment of food trucks and fall festival-type games for the kids. Walk around campus, enjoy the evening’s events, and make sure you’re back on Fountain Mall for the pep rally and bonfire that night.<\/p>\n

Saturday (Nov. 7) opens with the Homecoming Parade<\/a>, followed by Baylor football hosting Iowa State (time TBA) at McLane Stadium. Food trucks will also be outside the Hurd Welcome Center all morning for parade guests.<\/p>\n

(And if all that is still not enough — check out our lists of 99 things to see and do at Homecoming<\/a> for even more!)<\/p>\n

See you in four weeks at Homecoming 2026!<\/p>\n
