Mark your calendars, Beavers, because the biggest week of the year is officially on the books.

Bemidji State University will host its 2026 Homecoming festivities on Sept. 20-27, 2026, and invites all alumni, friends, supporters, and community members to join in on the action.

The trademark events — like Beaver Football’s annual quest for a lake jump and the incredible music at the Carl O. Thompson Memorial Concert — are of course returning, but so are many other beloved events, traditions, and opportunities.

This year, Beaver Soccer kicks off the week with a Sept. 20 home game, and Beaver Volleyball hosts their own match on Sept. 24. The football team will play on Sept. 26 in an afternoon that also features tailgating, Game Day Experience, and more. On Sept. 27, the Carl O. Thompson Memorial Concert puts a bow on the week of festivities.

Stay tuned over the coming months to learn more about what we have going on, and find all the latest information at bsualumni.org/homecoming.
