Homecoming

Homecoming is a special time for friends of the University to gather on Olivet’s campus. With activities planned for all ages and interests, Olivet celebrates accomplishments and heritage during a three-day schedule of events.

Save the Date for Homecoming & Family Weekend 2026 and plan to join us on campus October 23-25, 2026! Tickets will be available soon! We encourage you to consider making hotel reservations early as spaces sell out quickly.
