McMaster University homecoming this weekend features return of on-campus festivities, concert

Local

McMaster University homecoming events kick off this weekend, with officials hoping that the return of official on-campus festivities will help to curb past instances of unsanctioned street parties.

The McMaster Students Union (MSU) and McMaster Student Affairs announced in August 2024 that they would be reintroducing on-campus homecoming events to accompany the annual homecoming football game.

The game itself will be held on Saturday, Oct. 5 at 1 p.m. at Ron Joyce Stadium against the Western University Mustangs.
