Golden Graduates' Reunions

Keele University is proud to hold an annual reunion to celebrate its Golden Graduates - those who are celebrating the 50th anniversary since their graduation from Keele University or the University College of North Staffordshire.

19:15-22:30, Friday 28 June 2024

Invites will be sent in the spring (by post and email) to everyone we have contact details for from the Class of 1974. If you haven't heard from us by mid-April, please get in touch: alumni.hq@keele.ac.uk.

In 2024, we are delighted to invite the Class of 1974, and preceding years, to their Golden Graduates' Reunion. We also open the invite to earlier graduates. You are welcome to bring a non-alumni guest to the reunion. You will need to set-up an account on Keele's online store using the link above. Payment is via credit or debit card (£40 per attendee).

The booking system will automatically generate a confirmation for your booking. We will then be in touch with you via email or phone in order to ensure we have all the information we need, such as dietary requirements.

Please note that bookings are taken on a first come, first served basis.

Why this event began...

The Royal Charter of the University of Keele was granted in 1962 and in 2012, to mark the 50th anniversary of this Charter, we launched our first Golden Graduates' Reunion.
