Events

Join us at one of the many alumni events that take place throughout the year on campus, across the UK and internationally. They are a fantastic way to reconnect with old friends, expand your network of Sheffield alumni and find out what's been happening at the University recently.

Due to the current Coronavirus pandemic, the University has temporarily put on hold all face-to-face events on campus and around the world. However, we don't want our alumni and supporters to miss out during this time, so we are exploring ways to engage virtually. Please continue visiting this page for further updates.

Organise your own event

Want to get together with your old friends and classmates, but don't know where to start? We are here to help.

Sadly we couldn’t go ahead with this year’s Alumni Reunion, but we didn’t want the class years of 1970, 1980, 1990, 1995 or 2000 to miss out. So we’ve moved the celebration online!

Visit our special online celebration pages, full of memories to take you back to your time at Sheffield.
