For nearly nine decades, ThurtenE Carnival has served as a late spring occasion on the WashU campus. The event is the largest student-run carnival in the United States and includes games, dramatic entertainment, rides, and other forms of amusement. It is organized by the ThurtenE Honorary.
Please join us for this historic and now quintessential university event, which has become the community’s annual spring antidote to St. Louis’ cold and capricious winters—a chance to connect, enjoy, and savor WashU memories.
