What is Family Weekend?
Family Weekend is a long-standing ASU tradition held during the fall semester.

Check-in will begin at each campus the morning of Friday, Oct. 24, 2025  with events typically beginning mid-morning. All Colleges will host their signature event for families Friday afternoon with campus signature events occurring Friday early evening. We encourage participating families to plan to arrive by midday Friday to maximize their weekend. The 2024 schedule is still available on the website as a reference and the 2025 schedule will launch in summer.

Are football tickets included in Family Weekend registration?
No; football tickets need to be purchased separately through Sun Devil Athletics. However, as part of the Family Weekend festivities, registrants will be eligible to purchase reduced-price tickets to attend the ASU vs. Houston home football game on Saturday, Oct. 25 at Mountain America Stadium, along with all other Sun Devil Athletic matches that weekend. Sun Devil Athletics will reserve tickets exclusively for Family Weekend participants with options available at all price-points for the best seats available in each section. We will share more information on how to receive your discount and purchase football tickets in the coming months.

Do students need to purchase tickets to the football game?
If the student would like to sit with their  family, then they will need to purchase a ticket. However, students may sit in the student section for no charge. Students will need to access their tickets through the Game Day app to download their free ticket. As a reminder, ASU students can access free tickets to all Sun Devil Athletics games.
