Lantern Walk
One of ASU’s oldest and most treasured traditions, Lantern Walk was first celebrated in 1917. Each year students, alumni, faculty, staff and friends climb to the top of A Mountain carrying lanterns to light up Tempe, following in the footsteps of their Sun Devil ancestors. At the Lantern Walk, Sun Devils enjoy an hour packed with exciting speakers, ASU talents and a magnificent firework display. The event takes place each year on the Friday night before the Homecoming game. Join fellow Sun Devils at the base of “A” Mountain on Friday, Oct. 28, 8 p.m. to honor your alma mater at Lantern Walk.
Homecoming Parade and Block Party
The Sun Devil Homecoming Parade and Block Party starts at 11:30 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 29. Coach Frank Kush will serve as the Grand Marshal.

Join forces with Fulton Engineering to “Make Hunger Disappear”
ASU4FOOD, a student run organization, is collecting donations during the Homecoming Block Party. Each donation removes cans from the word “hunger” until it disappears. Show your support for Fulton Engineering and hunger issues by targeting your donation to bring down the “e” in Hunger. A $1 donation removes one can; donate $20 to remove a case of cans and become eligible for a Fulton Engineering prize, while supplies last.
