Homecoming 2021

For Ja’Lon Staples, the honor of being selected by his peers to represent them as Fairmont State University’s 2019 Homecoming King is a memory he won’t soon forget.  

“I was honored to be a part of that experience. I am honored and grateful that my peers and fellow classmates voted for me and thought that much of me,” said Staples, now a senior.  

The tunes of Fairmont State University’s marching band will fill the air on Saturday, October 9, when the annual Homecoming Parade makes its return to Fairmont.

Fairmont State University will welcome the Athletics Hall of Fame Class of 2020 back to campus during the University’s Homecoming taking place Thursday, October 7 – Saturday, October 9.

Fairmont State University is tentatively planning to host its 2021 Homecoming celebration on Friday, October 8 and Saturday, October 9. After canceling the event in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the campus community is looking forward to welcoming its Falcon Family back for a weekend of festivities.
