Dates + Times

Fall Convocation 2024

 Fall Convocation 2024 will be held in the Northern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium (11455 87 Avenue, Edmonton, AB).  The ceremonies will be held on November 26 and 27, 2024.  Dates and times for the ceremonies are listed below by Faculty:

Guest tickets

If you are planning to attend your Convocation ceremony, you will not need a ticket for yourself, but you must update your attendance on the Graduation Status page in Bear Tracks so that we can reserve a seat for you with your fellow graduates. If your plans change, please change your attendance back to no in Bear Tracks.

You will also need to obtain ceremony tickets for your guests. You will receive an allotment of up to three guest tickets if you update your attendance before October 11, 2024. Only graduates who attend their convocation ceremony will receive guest tickets. All guests, including babies and toddlers, will need their own ticket. Tickets are assigned to specific seats, and there is no fee for guest tickets. If your plans change and you are unable to attend your ceremony, please return your guest tickets to Ticketmaster via the app or website so another graduate may use them, and change your attendance to no in Bear Tracks.

Access to the online ticket site (TicketMaster) opens in mid-October, 2024.

Can I Get Extra Guest Tickets?

Additional information regarding dates and times for extra guest tickets will be updated on this website later in the Fall of 2024 and provided to graduates by email.

Location + Parking

Plan for extra time to get to Convocation. There are construction projects on campus that may affect access to parking and campus will be busy with many other students and their families heading to Convocation.

Parking is available in the Jubilee Carpark located adjacent to the Jubilee Auditorium. Surface parking is available on the south side. A parking fee will be charged during the ceremony. See Parking Lot locations for parking rates and more parking options.

Accessibility

Accessible seating in the Northern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium is indicated on the Ticketmaster seat map with a wheelchair symbol. If you have a guest that requires accessible seating (wheelchair, limited mobility, etc.), you can select up to two seats that are indicated on the seat map with a wheelchair symbol. You will be able to select your third guest ticket (if required) from a row nearby. Accessible seating in the first balcony can be accessed by elevator.

If you require accessible seating for yourself (wheelchair, sign language interpreter access, etc.) please contact convocation@ualberta.ca before November 8, 2024, to discuss arrangements.
