California volleyball has announced its promotional schedule for the upcoming fall season, with the Golden Bears set to host a celebration or giveaway in 13 of their 14 home matches. Single-game, group and season tickets are available here.
 
To celebrate the team's alumni weekend (Oct. 3-5), Cal will have a jam-packed slate of events for fans to enjoy at Haas Pavilion. Prior to the Oct. 3 match against Louisville – which also serves as the Bears' ACC opener – Cal will retire the number of legendary Golden Bear setter Carli Lloyd, the 2010 AVCA National Player of the Year and three-time All-American who led the program to its only two NCAA Final Four appearances in history and helped Team USA win the bronze medal at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.  Fans who arrive early will receive a commemorative Carli Lloyd t-shirt.
 
On Oct. 5, Cal will host its "Sunday Funday" event for its match against Notre Dame, which features several family-friendly activities as well as a post-match autograph session. The Bears will also sign autographs following the match against North Carolina on Nov. 9, when they will celebrate their "Championing Courage" day for those who have battled against hardship on and off the court.
 
The annual Dig Pink event will take place on Oct. 16 against Miami, which will feature a pink sport headband giveaway. The Bears are set to honor another standout alumnae during the Oct. 18 match against Florida State, when they will celebrate the achievements of 2025 Cal Athletics Hall of Fame inductee Hana Cutura, a three-time AVCA All-American and 2009 Pac-10 Player of the Year who owns the program record in career kills.
 
Fans will receive a special Big Spike-themed bandana at Cal's Nov. 23 match against Stanford, which will also be the team's Senior Day with a postgame ceremony to honor the players finishing their final year at Cal. For the Bears' season finale (Nov. 30 against Boston College), fans are encouraged to bring canned food donations to Haas Pavilion for Cal's annual "Fansgiving" food drive.
 
Other themed matches for the 2025 season include "Global Bears" night (Nov. 7 vs. Duke), Club HAAS (Nov. 14 vs. SMU) and Bears Bash (Nov. 16 vs. Pitt), the last of which will include free rally towels for fans.
