Tufts Parents Giving Program, your hosts for Parents and Family Weekend 2026, are thrilled to welcome you to campus on Friday, October 9 and Saturday, October 10.
Step into your Jumbo’s world and discover what makes Tufts so special! You’ll hear from senior administrators, dive into thought-provoking lectures led by our world-renowned faculty, and participate in open houses that spark curiosity.
Cheer on our athletic teams, explore campus through the Jumbo Scavenger Hunt, and don’t miss the Avenue of the Arts Festival—a lively celebration featuring music, dance, and performances by our incredibly talented student groups.
It’s a weekend full of inspiration, connection, and Jumbo spirit—we can’t wait to share it with you!
Upon arrival, visit our Welcome and Information Center located in Sophia Gordon Hall, Multipurpose Room, 15 Talbot Avenue.
Pop in for a refreshment, enjoy a warm Jumbo hello, and pick up your weekend badge—complete with QR codes linking to the final schedule and our Jumbo Scavenger Hunt. It’s your one-stop shop to kick off the fun!
Please note: The Welcome and Information Center is in Sophia Gordon Hall on Talbot Avenue, not in the Joyce Cummings Center on College Avenue, where you may have checked in during move-in.
The Welcome and Information Center will be open:
Friday, October 9 - 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
Saturday, October 10 - 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
