Each spring, Noyes House Team hosts '''Noise on Noyes''', an all-campus event. It is held in the spring semester, in mid to late April. It features student bands, has free food, student clothing sales, and other activities. Though it is always a fun event when in Jetsons or the Aula, for at least the past five years House Team has hoped to host it on the Nircle, but it has rained (and in 2025 snowed) every time. Hopefully next year the curse will be broken.
