Cardiff Connect
Welcome to the February 2026 edition of your alumni newsletter. Find out more about using your alumni discount, and we announce our exciting fringe events for Big Reunion Weekend.
We're excited to announce the first of our free fringe events for the Big Reunion Weekend!
We've got something for everyone to help you re-visit your Cardiff days; drop in to iconic Cardiff University buildings, take a walking tour, or hang out with friends.
Our fringe events are standalone, you don't need to have bought a ticket to the Friday night street party or Saturday night at the Students' Union to take part.
Take a look at the full Big Reunion Weekend fringe events programme
Big Reunion Weekend fringe highlights
Warm-up session at The Woody
Alum Chris Fidler (BA 1996) is hosting a vinyl records disco at The Woody from 2pm - 6pm on Saturday 18th July.
Women's History Walking Tours
Leaving from Main Building, this short walking tour will take you through the fascinating women's history that surrounds campus.
The Big Guest Lecture
International author and BAFTA-nominated wildlife presenter Dr Rhys Jones (BSc 1999, MPhil 2003, PhD 2010) shares stories from his incredible career.
We're looking forward to welcoming you back to Cardiff, and want to make this a weekend to remember. But as well as our free fringe, don't forget to book tickets to our limited capacity evening events.
Your reunion, your events
We'd love to compile a list of your events: the meet-ups and gatherings that you'd like your fellow alumni to know about.
Tell us about your event and we'll add it to our Fringe listings.
