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.

The 2026 Golden Graduates' Reunion will take place on Saturday 27th June 2026.

If you graduated in 1975 or earlier years and do not already receive invites to this annual event, please get in touch: alumni.hq@keele.ac.uk.

Bookings for the 2026 Golden Graduates reunion are now open.

This year, we are delighted to invite the Class of 1976, and preceding years, to their Golden Graduates' Reunion. You are welcome to bring a non-alumni guest to the reunion. You will need to purchase your ticket using the link above. Payment is via credit or debit card (£45 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.

Cancellations: If you cancel your attendance at the event before Friday 12 June 2026, you will receive a full refund. Any bookings cancelled after this date may be non-refundable, dependent on circumstances. All cancellations to bookings must be sent to alumni.hq@keele.ac.uk.

Invites to all eligible alumni we have contact details are being posted out soon. If you haven't heard from us by mid-April, please get in touch: alumni.hq@keele.ac.uk

The event will be held in Keele Hall.

All parking nearby is free.

We have arranged a special rate at the Marriott which you can access here. This rate of £119 per room includes breakfast, car parking, and free cancellation up to 28 days prior to arrival. 
 
Please be aware the hotel also offers other pre-paid rates which may be more suitable for you, e.g. without car parking or breakfast - please have a look at their website to see the details of other rates and get in touch at sales@courtyardkeele.co.uk if you have any questions.

We will offer a free shuttle service to and from the Marriott on the evening. We will provide more information about this via email before the event.

Keele Day will be taking place on campus on the same day - please join us!


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.
