Reunions
Reunions are a fantastic way to reconnect with old friends from your time at Glasgow.
It’s easier than you might think to organise a reunion and the Alumni Engagement Team can provide all the support you need.
We’re in contact with UofG graduates worldwide and can help to put you in touch with one another.
Check below to see if there is an upcoming reunion for your class. If not, why not organise your own?
Coronavirus outbreak
Due to the Coronavirus outbreak events on the University of Glasgow campus have been cancelled for the foreseeable future. We will review this in line with measures laid out by government.
If you would like to organise a reunion for 2021 or beyond we would love to help you connect with your fellow classmates at this time. Contact us via alumni@glasgow.ac.uk

ANNUAL VET REUNION DINNER 2020/21
We are very sorry to announce that the annual Vet Reunion Dinner will not go ahead (again) this year. We had hoped that there would be less uncertainty this time around, and it’s fair to say that we are all incredibly disappointed to have had to make this decision.
On a more positive note, we are delighted that the London Vet Show is going ahead, in-person at the ExCel London and we plan to hold a ‘Glasgow Get-together’ at the Crowne Plaza London Docklands on Thursday 11 November 2021 from 6pm until 7:30pm in the Meeting Success Lounge. We hope that alumni and friends attending the LVS will pop along and say hello. More information to follow.
We will update you on arrangements for next years reunion in due course.
