Preparing for Parents and Families Weekend

Just two weekends away is Parents and Families Weekend! Registration is now closed, although there are a few events that did not require registration, and you can find them here. Get ready for a fun-filled weekend celebrating Wolfpack traditions and making lasting memories.

By now, you should have received our Know Before You Go email, which includes all the important details for the weekend—parking information, ticketing instructions, event times and more. Be sure to review it carefully so you’re ready for your visit!

Your student will be eager to show you around—where their classes are, who their friends are and what they’ve gotten involved in. This is a wonderful opportunity to see them thriving here at NC State. And if your student is still adjusting to college life, your visit is the perfect chance to provide encouragement and help them feel more connected to campus.

From the football game on Saturday to Paint with the Pack on Sunday, there’s something for everyone. Don’t forget to wear red to show your Pack spirit! Stop by Wolfpack Outfitters for the latest gear, or check out the Red and White Shop just down the road—where you can even use the VIP card you received at New Student Orientation for a discount.

We can’t wait to welcome you back to campus for this special weekend. Make the most of it, enjoy every moment, and as always—

GO PACK!
