Arizona State Tour

ASU Gammage


"You don’t have to be in New York to enjoy great performances. ASU Gammage, considered by many to be the crowning jewel of ASU’s Tempe campus, is one of Frank Lloyd Wright’s last designs. Wright designed the building to be as acoustically perfect as possible. This means that every seat is a great seat for the many PROGRESSIVE Broadway Across America — Arizona series performances and performing arts groups on stage throughout the year. ASU students are eligible for discounts for select performances.
ASU Gammage is also the location for many university traditions and special graduation celebrations at the close of each semester."

Homecoming
Every fall since 1924, Homecoming FestDevil has brought alumni, students, friends and community supporters together to celebrate the traditions, pride, friendships and experiences that are all part of ASU life. The Homecoming Parade is a popular, time-honored event that draws large crowds to downtown Tempe where hundreds of campus clubs, organizations, and local businesses display their floats. In 2003, ASU held its first Homecoming Block Party for the ASU and surrounding community, and the parade was incorporated into the Block Party together with tents for the various colleges, reunion classes and campus organizations, alongside many other activities.
