What is Family Weekend?

Thousands of new students and their families will join us for the 26th annual Family Weekend on Friday and Saturday, October 20 and 21.

Family Weekend, one of SDSU’s most time-honored traditions, allows parents and families to get a glimpse into their student’s life at SDSU. Aside from getting time to catch up, tour campus, and eat at your student's favorite restaurants, there will be programming specifically for families. Our signature events include Family Weekend Picnic, Brunch, and Tailgate.
