A normal weekend at UNCW is full of activities for students! UNCWeekends hosts a wide variety of activities on campus to ensure you can never say 'there is nothing to do!' Examples of events hosted by the UNCWeekends program include:

  • BINGO Night: Classic and signature events for each jazzed up with a unique theme.
  • Cheerwine and Design: We bring the supplies, you bring the creativity.
  • Sunday Funday: Wind down the weekend and energize yourself for the week ahead.

The UNCWeekends program leads weekends at UNCW, but we certainly are not the only ones planning events! Check out other opportunities such as the Association for Campus Entertainments (ACE) film series in Lumina Theatre or the UNCW Athletics schedule to truly plan out a great weekend.
