HOMECOMING REIMAGINED
October 26 – 31, 2026
Get ready for a week of campus traditions, Retriever spirit, and opportunities to connect with the people and communities that make UMBC feel like home.
This year’s Homecoming centers the current student experience, with activities throughout the week designed to bring Retrievers together and celebrate UMBC.
Homecoming kicks off Monday with campus activities and plenty of Retriever spirit. On Tuesday, student organizations and communities across campus will have opportunities to show their UMBC pride.
The celebration continues Wednesday with the Homecoming Bonfire, Thursday with a concert, followed by a Homecoming tailgate experience and soccer game on Friday. Alumni and the broader UMBC community are welcome to celebrate with us at these signature student events.
Event details will be announced as they are finalized.
