ROARfest is rolling in!

Current students, faculty, and staff are invited to kick off the fall season with Columbia’s inaugural ROARfest—a day of school spirit, community, and fall fun. Join fellow Columbians for seasonal treats and activities—plus cheer on your fellow Lions as our athletes take center stage. Once a lion, always a lion, so grab a sweater, bring your friends, and get ready to ROAR!

  • 12-4 p.m.: Fall treats, food trucks, giveaways, and craft stations (while supplies last)—plus activities and games throughout
  • 12–2 p.m.: On-court competitions with the Women’s and Men’s basketball teams for a chance to win prizes 
  • 2-4 p.m.: Pick-up games on the basketball court so bring your ball
  • 3-4 p.m.: Columbia football team’s gameday walkthrough 

Open to current students, faculty, and staff from Columbia University, Barnard College, and Teachers College. No registration required. 

In partnership with the Columbia Alumni Association, Columbia Athletics, and University Life.
