Hallmark Events
Each year brings numerous happenings to Lehigh, from university events to arts and culture opportunities, athletics events to long-standing traditions that date back decades. It simply would not be a year at Lehigh without Family Weekend, Founder’s Weekend, Lehigh-Lafayette and so much more.

An annual celebration of our graduates, Commencement brings the university together as we send our newest alumni out into the world. Learn more about Commencement >
Lehigh-Lafayette
Known as The Rivalry, the Lehigh-Lafayette football game is the most-played college football series in all of college football. The two teams first took to the gridiron in 1884, a mere one year after standardized football rules were established. Learn more about Lehigh-Lafayette >
