FALL 2024 Tarleton Purple and White Bazaar
Every fall, Tarleton State University lights up with the energy of Homecoming. One of Tarleton's most beloved festivities during Homecoming Week is the Purple and White Bazaar. This lively event transforms the campus into a bustling marketplace filled with Tarleton spirit.
The Purple and White Bazaar is more than just a shopping experience—it celebrates community and tradition. Vendors from around the area gather to showcase handmade crafts, Tarleton-themed merchandise, jewelry, and home goods. You can also find delicious food options and enjoy live entertainment throughout the event. The Bazaar is a must-visit whether you're looking for unique gifts, custom Tarleton gear, or want to soak in the Homecoming atmosphere.
Don't miss this event, where students, alums, and the entire Tarleton community come together to proudly display the university's colors: purple and white. As one of the highlights of Homecoming Week, the Bazaar offers a perfect opportunity to celebrate your Texan pride while supporting local businesses. Take advantage of the chance to be part of this Tarleton tradition!

How To Prepare
We encourage all attendees to come prepared to make the most of your experience at the University Ring Showcase. Given the personalized nature of our event, it's essential to arrive on time—or even a bit early—as wait times of 20-45 minutes are typical due to our one-on-one consultations.
To streamline the process, we recommend browsing our website and social media beforehand to identify 2-3 ring styles that catch your eye. This will help focus your time and ensure you get the most out of your visit. Additionally, you can download, print or save pictures of your favorite designs.
Lastly, be sure to write down your questions beforehand to ensure you do not miss any while shopping!
