Blue Tigers — It's Always Good to Come Home

 

Save the Date for Homecoming 2026: September 20-26, 2026

 

For more than a century, Lincoln University’s Homecoming has been more than an event — it’s a tradition rooted in pride, connection and legacy. After celebrating a historic 100th Homecoming milestone, the spirit of coming home continues to unite generations of Blue Tigers who return to “the Hill” to reconnect, reflect and relive what makes Lincoln unforgettable.

Each Homecoming builds on that rich history, honoring the past while celebrating the people, progress and promise that define LU today. Whether you’re visiting for the first time or returning as a lifelong Tiger, Homecoming is a time to celebrate where we’ve been, embrace where we are and look ahead to what’s next.

Stay tuned for updates on upcoming Homecoming events, schedules, and opportunities to get involved. No matter when you return, one thing remains true — it’s always a great time to come home.
