National Marquette Day to be celebrated Feb. 1 

National Marquette Day will be celebrated on Saturday, Feb. 1, culminating in the Golden Eagles men’s basketball team taking on defending national champion UConn at 7 p.m. in Fiserv Forum. New this year, Marquette’s annual Homecoming celebration will take place in the week leading up to National Marquette Day

National Marquette Day has been celebrated around the world for over 30 years, providing an opportunity to unite in pride, spirit and sport to honor the values we cherish throughout the year. Members of the Marquette community gathered at watch parties at 50 locations for the men’s basketball game against St. John’s last year, and many more traveled to Milwaukee to celebrate the day in person.
