Naz Weekend is an all-out celebration of Nazareth and its people. Whether you're an alum, a student, a family member, faculty, staff, or member of the greater Rochester community, you're invited. There's something for everyone at Naz Weekend, and we can't wait to celebrate with you!

While reunion continues to be a part of Naz Weekend, we’re making the whole weekend more inclusive to families, students, and community members. Milestone reunion classes ending in 1 and 6 will be celebrated at this year’s Naz weekend.

Campus will celebrate the 5th Naz Weekend on September 18–20, 2026

We have contracted with a variety of hotels in different locations and price ranges available for booking.

Most events will be held on the Nazareth campus. A couple of the reunion gatherings will be hosted off campus to assist our on-campus catering services.

Thank you for your generosity! Gifts and pledges help continue Nazareth's impact. We are always grateful for support to all areas of the University. You can direct your gift to diversity and inclusion initiatives, scholarships, your school or academic department, or any other area of Nazareth that is meaningful to you.

If you’re interested in helping establish a Reunion Class Gift or even creating your own named scholarship to support future Golden Flyers, please reach out to alumni@naz.edu; we’d love to connect with you about the possibilities!
