Purdue Family Weekend

Family Weekend is now offered twice -- in both the Fall and the Spring!

Purdue Family Weekend is three days of campus-wide activities designed for students and their families. Past events have included a tailgate, a barbeque, movies, and fun at our Co-Recreational facilities. Along with the University, departments and programs hold their own events on these weekends. We look forward to seeing you at an upcoming Purdue Family Weekend event!
