What is Big Red Weekend?

Big Red Weekend is a "spring homecoming" featuring many opportunities for alumni and friends to celebrate and rediscover UNL. All alumni, friends and fans are invited to participate in the myriad of activities happening this weekend. Some groups are planning reunions to coincide with the other festivities.

Who is invited?

Anyone and everyone can attend!

What events are taking place?

Events range from guided tours to athletic contests, including the spring football game.  On Friday night, you are invited to attend the alumni association's Football Friday.  For additional information, consult the schedule which is updated regularly as new events are added.

Do I need to register?

Some events require pre-registration and pre-payment. These are designated accordingly on the schedule. Many other events are free and open to walk-ups. Registration will be available in the spring.

How can I plan a gathering for my group?
