Every weekend is a busy weekend at AU, but we pull out all the stops for our favorite events.

Fall Family Weekend
Come to Alfred in the Fall, when the air is crisp and the leaves offer a dazzling last burst of beauty. There are activities designed to appeal to all members of the family, including performances by students and faculty, visiting entertainers, sporting events, and more.

Homecoming
AU Alumni come home to catch up with old friends and create new memories. The weekend highlights include a home football game and lots of entertainment.

Siblings Weekend
Students are encouraged to invite their siblings to Alfred in November for a fun weekend of wholesome entertainment. Performers have included hypnotists and acrobats, and there's always a family movie.

Spring Family Weekend and Hot Dog Day
This April weekend is designed to showcase the talents and achievements of our students, and to provide helpful information for parents. The highlight of the weekend is Honors Convocation and Hot Dog Day, one of Alfred's biggest traditions. The street carnival features games, arts and crafts booths, live music, mud volleyball and of course, lots of hot dogs. The event raises thousands of dollars for local charities.
