FAMILY WEEKEND 2025: September 26-27

Join us for Family Weekend 2025 at Valdosta State University, September 26–27! This annual tradition is the perfect opportunity to experience Blazer Nation alongside your student. From our inaugural Family Weekend 5K and Breakfast with Blaze, to tailgating at Blazergate and cheering on the Blazers at kickoff, the weekend is packed with fun and memorable events. Families can also enjoy unique experiences like a Sip & Paint, exploring the Copeland African American Museum, catching a show in our state-of-the-art planetarium, or relaxing together in the Union Station Game Room. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a returning Blazer family, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. Don’t miss this chance to connect with your student, meet fellow Blazer families, and make memories that will last a lifetime.
