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 2024 and plan to join us on campus October 25-27th! Tickets are available now! We encourage you to consider making hotel reservations early as spaces sell out quickly. For more information about where to eat and exciting things to do in the area, check out the Kankakee County Convention & Visitors Bureau page.

“We love our Olivet community and are excited to welcome all alumni, friends and family back to campus during Homecoming & Family Weekend!” said Erika Moeschke, Senior Director of Alumni Relations and University Advancement. “Let’s reunite for a weekend filled with cherished traditions, heartwarming moments and the joy of being together again. Your presence completes the picture of our Homecoming and Family Weekend. We can’t wait to see you!”

Calling All Singers!Saturday, Oct. 26, at 7 p.m. in Hawkins Centennial Chapel 

Did you sing in ONU’s annual MESSIAH while a student? We are inviting YOU to join us for this dynamic musical event.

We will offer rehearsals on-demand via video in advance and an in-person rehearsal on Saturday of HOCO. This concert will be filmed and available to all who participate! 

This is not a formal commitment (yet!) but it will allow us to get an idea of exactly how many people may want to participate.
