All Harvard alumni from across Schools and around the globe are invited to join the Harvard Alumni Association on Friday, June 5, 2026, for the annual Harvard Alumni Day celebration!

Each spring, thousands gather in Cambridge on Alumni Day to celebrate the collective influence of our alumni and the strength of their interconnected communities. It’s a day full of joy, nostalgia, and connection, fostering the rekindling of old friendships and the formation of new ones.

It features the traditional Alumni Parade, a festive speaking program with special alumni guests, engaging symposia sessions and meetups, open houses, a vibrant Yard party featuring food and beverages from local favorites, and more. It is an unforgettable celebration of alumni communities everywhere—and for those unable to make it to campus, livestreamed programming allows you to participate in the festivities from wherever you are.
