UNI Homecoming Parade 2025

Homecoming will be extra special this year, as it will be one of the first campus-wide events during the UNI Sesquicentennial Celebration, marking 150 years rich in tradition at the University of Northern Iowa. The UNI Sesquicentennial Celebration will continue throughout 2025 and culminate during Homecoming 2026.

This year’s Homecoming theme, “Panthers Through Time,” celebrates our proud past, vibrant present and bold future. The Homecoming parade—a highlight of the celebration—will march through downtown Cedar Falls on Saturday, Oct. 4, 2025. Parade goers can gather along Main Street to experience food and fun in the vibrant downtown district.
