Homecoming at Marietta College

Marietta Serenade — Celebrating the Performing Arts

Marietta College Homecoming 2025

Make your plans to come back HOME! Homecoming 2025 starts on Thursday, October 16, and runs through Sunday, October 19.

This year's theme, Marietta Serenade, hearkens back to Homecomings from the 1960s, 70s and 80s — and this time, students in the Music and Theatre departments are stepping up to deliver breathtaking performances and showcase how much talent our performing arts students have!

The Class of 1975 celebrates their Golden Reunion this year, plus we also have a special reunion gathering for the classes of 1985, 1990, 1995, 2000, 2005, and 2015.

Be sure to check back for updates to the schedule — more events will be added as Fall semester gets underway!
