Event Details
October 23-25, 2026
Family Weekend is about celebrating all things Mizzou and what makes Mizzou feel like home to each student. Friends, family, faculty and staff, and community members are welcome to attend.
A preview of our schedule is available on the Family Weekend webpage. The final schedule will be available when registration opens on Aug. 1.
This year, Family Weekend will not have a Mizzou football game on the schedule. This decision was made thoughtfully and in direct response to feedback from families who shared challenges in previous years related to parking availability, hotel access and navigating campus.
