Ontario Agricultural College 150th Events

Please note: The Denim and Diamonds Holiday Gala has been cancelled

OAC '92 invites you to join in celebrating OAC's 150th Anniversary on December 28th! Whether you’re attending the flagship Denim & Diamonds Holiday Gala in Elora or hosting your own party anywhere in the world, we invite you to bring together OAC community members for a night of fun, connection, and Aggie Spirit.

Two ways to celebrate:

• Attend the Denim & Diamonds Holiday Gala. Join us in Elora at the Grandway Events Centre for a festive evening combining Aggie Pub energy with black-tie style. Dance the night away to live music and enjoy a night of memories with fellow Aggies. 
• Host Your Own Party. Can’t make it to Elora? Host your own party from anywhere! Whether it’s an intimate gathering or a larger celebration, anything more than one person counts as a party. Pick your theme, invite your friends, and join the global Aggie community in celebrating 150 years. 

Date: Thursday, January 16, 2025
Time: 7:30 PM
Location: Gryphon Centre Arena

Join us for the 8th annual Men's Aggies' Night, a proud Gryphon tradition! Watch the University of Guelph men’s hockey team face off against the Western Mustangs. Presented by Syngenta, this game brings together students, alumni, and industry leaders to honor OAC’s legacy. The team will don special "Aggies" jerseys for this exciting matchup.

The OAC 150th anniversary celebrations are made possible by the generous support of Joe & Barbara Maxwell, the OAC Alumni Association, and the OAC Alumni Foundation.
