Alumni & Family Weekend

Alumni & Family Weekend

This year’s annual Alumni & Family Weekend will take place October 24 – 26.

Come see for yourself. Reconnect. Enjoy. Network.

Alumni & Family Weekend is a Fairfield tradition that offers a variety of fun activities and special events for students, alumni, and families alike for one weekend every fall. Alumni will enjoy mini-reunions with friends and classmates, and get to see first-hand what’s new on campus. Parents and families will be on hand to see how their sons and daughters are doing after a couple of months away at college. Friends are sure to enjoy all Fairfield has to offer during this can’t-miss weekend.

Please let us know if you are attending Alumni & Family Weekend by filling out our Registration Form! Stags of all ages are welcome.
Please Note: submitting the form does not include access to ticketed or R.S.V.P. required events.

Alumni & Family Weekend Guide

Alumni & Family Weekend Guide will be live on the Fairfield University App this fall. In an effort to go paperless, in place of a printed schedule, we have created the Fairfield University Application. The app is available for all smartphones including iPhone and Android devices for free. The Alumni & Family Weekend Guide will allow you to access the event schedule, ticket info, and university resources.

We ask that you take the time to download the app before arriving on campus for the weekend.
