Over a thousand students will cross the stage to receive their degree at the 2026 UNF Fall Convocation this October

University of Niagara Falls Canada (UNF) is looking forward to celebrating its new class of graduates at the Fall 2026 Convocation taking place Friday, Oct. 30 and Saturday, Oct. 31 at the Niagara Falls Convention Centre in downtown Niagara Falls.

This fall, over a thousand students from three programs will cross the stage in front of family, friends and the UNF community to receive their degrees in ceremonies that will take place over two days.

“UNF is excited to be celebrating so many students as they graduate this fall,” says David Gray, President and Vice-Chancellor at UNF. “The curiosity and innovative spirit they have brought to their time here with us has been an inspiration to the UNF community. We look forward to seeing where their journeys lead them next.”

Those unable to attend Convocation in person will be able to watch both ceremonies through the livestream on UNF’s YouTube channel.
