Book a Visit
Add a special NIU touch to your next event with an appearance by Mission, the official mascot of NIU.
Mission will make appearances at NIU university and college-based events, which includes Mission's Grove and home football games. During the schoolyear, he comes to campus to meet staff, students and visitors for "Mission Monday". He is available for your next campus or community event, alumni events, weddings and special occasions.
Mission’s appearance fee is $125/hour for NIU organizations and departments and $200/hour for others within a 60-mile radius of DeKalb (additional charge if outside radius; fees subject to change).
To get started, fill out the appearance request form below. Requests must be received at least two weeks before the event. Please allow three business days for a response about the request. Completion of the form does not guarantee Mission's appearance.
