Homecoming 2025

Marietta College Campus & Community

Celebrate all things Marietta College during Homecoming 2025. This year's theme is Marietta Serenade — a nod to a cherished tradition from the 1960s, 70s, and 80s. Current Theatre and Music students will add a layer of nostalgia to the weekend by showcasing their talents during spot performances you won't want to miss!

This year, the Class of 1975 will celebrate their Golden Reunion. Other classes reaching milestones include 1985, 1990, 1995, 2000, 2005, and 2015. Golden Pioneers are invited to a meet and greet at the President's House, followed by a dinner in Andrews Hall. The College will host the other celebrating classes at a special event in the DBRC on Saturday evening, as well. Please email alumni@marietta.edu if you would like to be a class volunteer.

Greek organizations will host an array of events, and the MCAA-C will also celebrate special Pioneers during the annual Awards Ceremony.

Your registration comes with a name tag, which will serve as your ticket to the All-Alumni Welcome, the Pioneer Tailgate, the football and volleyball games, and other events you registered to attend.

Be sure to visit the Homecoming site often, as events will continue to be added!
