The Texas A&M Corps of Cadets is excited to announce that a march will be conducted prior to the Lone Star Showdown against the University of Texas at Austin on Nov. 28, 2025. A return to tradition, this Corps trip marks the first time that cadets will march through Austin since 2010. 

Each Halloween, Company C-2 of the Texas A&M Corps of Cadets carries on its long-standing tradition, the Flight of the Great Pumpkin. First held in 1963, this unique event blends Halloween spirit with Corps pride as cadets of all classes take part in a night of camaraderie, history, and spectacle on the Quad.
