Host your own event

Reunion in a Box

Reunion in a Box is a free resource to support you in reconnecting with university pals, classmates, or Sports Club or Society members. Each box includes links to music playlists so you can enjoy the sounds of your studies at your event, alongside nostalgic University of Birmingham memorabilia in the form of an exclusive alumni reunion magnet, Old Joe beer mats, and games and quizzes!

Reunion in a Box can be used wherever you are based around the globe, whether you’re planning a small meet-up at a local pub or want to plan a visit to our Edgbaston campus.

Request your Reunion in a Box and find more resources to support your Reunion.

Check the list of upcoming reunions already being planned by our alumni for classmates, year groups, friends, societies and sports teams. Let the Events Team know if you are running a reunion you would like to promote.

Global Alumni Gatherings

To commemorate the anniversary of the University of Birmingham receiving Royal Assent in 1900, Birmingham alumni across the Globe get together on or around 25 May to celebrate their connection with the University.

All our Global Alumni Gathering events are organised by alumni volunteers, so if there isn't an event in your area, why not be an organiser? We're looking for alumni who want to get together and help reach out to their local alumni. This could be online or face to face, depending on what the restrictions are like in May 2023.

Let us know if you'd like to be involved in Global Alumni Gathering 2023 by emailing the Alumni Events team.

Check the Global Alumni Gathering list for upcoming events already being planned by our alumni.

You can find out more about Global Alumni Gatherings, including an extensive list of resources to help you in planning your event.
