EVERY YARD. ONE MAP.
Your letters. Your city. Your next gathering.
FraternityRings.com introduces Every Yard: an interactive map for HBCU homecomings, Divine Nine events, and the chapter gatherings that make a weekend worth the trip.
You hear about a step show from one group chat, a homecoming date from another, and a chapter fundraiser after tickets have already started moving. Every Yard gives that information a place to come together. Find an event by location, organization, date, or type, open its listing, and follow the organizer’s official link for details and tickets.
Find your people and plan your weekend
Switch between map, list, and calendar views. Filter by any of the nine NPHC organizations: Alpha Phi Alpha, Alpha Kappa Alpha, Kappa Alpha Psi, Omega Psi Phi, Delta Sigma Theta, Phi Beta Sigma, Zeta Phi Beta, Sigma Gamma Rho, and Iota Phi Theta. Save listings, share an event link with your chapter or line, and download dates to your calendar.
Homecoming is part of the picture. The submission form also welcomes conventions, step shows, tailgates, galas and fundraisers, service events, Founders’ Day celebrations, leadership programs, and social gatherings or reunions.
The HBCU view includes 102 school profiles with locations, founding years where available, enrollment figures labeled by reporting year, and historical Divine Nine chapter information. These profiles help you explore the institutions behind the celebrations. The enrollment data currently uses Fall 2023 figures, and historical chapter names do not establish current campus recognition or active status.
The first events on the map
At launch, Every Yard includes six upcoming listings and one archived event. This is a growing directory, not yet a complete national event calendar. Here is what you can explore now:
| Event | 2026 dates | Location |
|---|---|---|
| Morgan State Homecoming Week | October 5–11 | Baltimore, MD |
| Howard Homecoming | October 17 | Washington, DC |
| FAMU Homecoming | October 18–25 | Tallahassee, FL |
| FAMU Homecoming Concert | October 22 | Tallahassee, FL |
| FAMU NPHC Step Show | October 23 | Tallahassee, FL |
| North Carolina A&T GHOE | October 25–November 1 | Greensboro, NC |
| Omega Psi Phi 85th Grand Conclave — archived | July 30–August 3 | Cincinnati, OH |
Morgan State: The homecoming week listing brings you to the official schedule for alumni gatherings and celebrations, including the kickoff and annual gala. Morgan’s official homecoming information.
Howard: The listing uses the October 17 date announced on the university’s alumni page. That page also retains older program material, so check the university for confirmed individual 2026 activities. Howard’s official announcement.
FAMU: Explore homecoming week, then open the concert and NPHC Step Show as individual listings connected to that homecoming. This is how Every Yard connects the larger celebration with events inside it. FAMU’s official homecoming schedule.
North Carolina A&T: The 100th edition of GHOE runs October 25–November 1, with the football game against Elon on October 31. A&T’s official homecoming page.
Omega Psi Phi: The 85th Grand Conclave in Cincinnati is retained as a past event. Enable the past-events filter to see it; it is not an upcoming ticket opportunity. Omega’s official Conclave announcement.
Put your chapter’s event on the map
- Open Every Yard and select “Add your event” at the top of the map, or use the “Submit an event” invitation.
- Tell us who is hosting. Include the event title, organization, chapter or council, and event type.
- Add the details people need. Enter the dates, city, state, venue, a useful description, and an official HTTPS event or ticket link.
- Connect it to a school or homecoming when relevant. You can also open an existing homecoming listing and use its invitation to add an event happening during that celebration.
- Provide your contact email and submit for review. Your email is for follow-up and is not displayed in the public listing. Save the submission reference shown after a successful submission.
Submissions enter a review queue before appearing publicly. Please provide accurate details and an official source that our team can check. Submitting an event does not guarantee publication.
Want your event promoted?
Select “I’d like this event considered for promotion” in the submission form. Tell us what makes your gathering worth attending: the chapter milestone, scholarship mission, service project, reunion, or homecoming experience behind it.
Promotion requests can be considered for a featured listing, Instagram coverage, or an editorial spotlight. Availability, placement, and any costs are agreed separately; a request does not guarantee promotion.
For an Omega chapter hosting a homecoming gathering, the value is straightforward: someone exploring that city, those dates, or Omega Psi Phi can discover the event and reach the official ticket page. The same opportunity extends across the Divine Nine.
Your chapter already brings people together. Help them find where to meet.
