Online or downloadable applications to participate in the parade and to vend on campus are due by close of business on Friday, Oct. 20.

The traffic resulting from the influx of additional campus visitors, as well as the homecoming parade itself, will result in numerous street closures and re-routed traffic patterns on Saturday, Oct. 28. Anyone visiting the campus or needing to navigate the area surrounding campus and Downtown Tuskegee on Saturday are encouraged to familiarize themselves with those changes by visiting the university鈥檚 homecoming webpage. Most traffic-related changes will be in effect starting at 7 a.m. Saturday and extend through two hours following the conclusion of the football game.
