The Homecoming Dance is Back, and Better Than Ever!

Save the Date! CC’s 150th Extravaganza will take place Saturday, Nov. 2, 2024 from 8-11 p.m. in CC’s Ed Robson Arena. 


For a century and a half, Colorado College has fostered intellectual curiosity, academic excellence, and a deep appreciation for doing things differently.

In the spirit of doing things differently, get ready for a celebration unlike any this campus has seen!

This November, during Homecoming Weekend, we commemorate CC’s remarkable 150-year journey and recognize the generations of students, faculty, staff, alumni, and community members who have contributed to the college's enduring legacy of excellence with a not-to-be-missed EXTRAVAGANZA!

The 150th Extravaganza features a live band, DJ, casino games, dancing, and an after-party drone show. This is the perfect chance to mix with other Tigers and kick-off the next 150 years of CC.

Mark your calendars and get out your dancing shoes!
