Dating all the way back to 1947, students who served in WWII were returning back to normalcy here at Auburn University, but upon their return, they felt unseen and unheard here on campus. In response, Auburn University’s student body and members of the Student Government Association pushed for a day that would unite the Auburn Family and promote a friendly atmosphere known as Hey Day.

This year’s Hey Day will be hosted on October 12, 2022 all around campus! We look forward to engaging the Auburn Family by distributing name tags and handing out Hey Day-branded promotional items. We invite everyone to join us for a free, catered meal, a pep-rally performed by the Auburn University Marching Band, an inflatable obstacle course, and many special guests. We can’t wait to see you all there!
