Henryetta is rolling out the black-and-gold carpet for Homecoming Week 2025 – and the heart of the celebration promises to be an unforgettable combination of small-town charm, community spirit and Knight pride.

Tomorrow evening, downtown Henryetta will light up for the Second Annual Homecoming Community Block Party.

This event isn’t just another gathering it’s a vibrant reminder of how deeply rooted Knight pride runs through Henryetta’s veins. Whether you’re a graduate from the glory days, a current student sporting the latest black-and-gold gear, or a local business owner decking out your storefront for the festivities, the block party is a place to come together and celebrate what it means to be part of the Knight family.

With support from local businesses, alumni, and school organizations, Main Street will be filled with booths, decorations, food vendors and fun for all ages. It’s a can’t-miss kickoff to a weekend packed with high spirits and high stakes.

— Friday Night Lights: Knights Take the Field The party doesn’t stop downtown because Friday is game day.

The energy shifts to the stadium Friday evening, where fans will gather early for a pre-game tailgate party beginning at 4 p.m., located in the parking lot beside the former health clinic building. Food, music and laughter will fill the lot as fans of all ages share stories, take photos and rally behind their team.

Then, at 6 p.m., Homecoming festivities officially begin on the field, followed by the big football matchup under the lights. The Knights are expected to take the field before a sea of roaring black-and-gold supporters, ready to defend their turf and give the crowd something to cheer about.
