Alumni Spring Break

The students are on Spring Break, and Clemson is calling you home!

Let’s do it again! The first Alumni Spring Break was a huge success so we are going to do it again! Come join the Clemson Alumni Association for a weekend of fun, activities and concerts with your old classmates and friends on March 24-25, 2023. A ticket is required to attend and participate in Spring Break activities. Click the registration below to purchase you ticket now.

You walked across campus for four years during your time as a student, but you won’t believe how much it has changed. Start Alumni Spring Break weekend with tours of the campus you once knew like the back of your hand and see how much it has grown! The City of Clemson has graciously agreed to close College Ave. on Friday evening. So head Downtown and enjoy a concert and block party with Cravin’ Melon and Drivin’ N Cryin’.

Take part in the alumni golf gathering at the Walker Course and enjoy the festivities of our second Alumni Spring Break Welcome Back party where you can visit all the local Clemson businesses you spent most of your time in while you were a student. Discounts and Clemson swag will make your weekend back in Tigertown one you will never forget.

A portion of your registration fee may be considered a gift back to Clemson University
