    Join us for UNC Asheville Family Weekend, October 16–18 to spend time with your student, experience campus life, and enjoy all that Asheville has to offer during one of the most beautiful times of the year. 

    You’ve probably already heard stories about your student’s favorite campus hangout, the friends they’ve made, and the little moments that are making UNC Asheville feel like home. Family Weekend is your chance to come experience their Bulldog life firsthand and be part of it all.

    With peak fall foliage and mountain views, campus traditions, and Asheville adventures, there will be plenty to do together! See the full Family Weekend 2026 Schedule of Events, including links to register for all off-campus tours, including the Haunted Trolley, River Arts District, Lazoom Comedy, and Mountain Mural Tours. 

    Please contact the Student Engagement Team at studentengagement@unca.edu, if you have any questions. We are happy to help!
