Family & Friends,<\/p>\n

Save the date! Boston University’s Family & Friends Weekend is happening October 16-18, 2026<\/strong>. This will be your chance to see your Terrier in their element! Walk around campus together, meet their friends, maybe grab dinner at their favorite spot. These are the moments that make our hearts happy \u2014 watching you discover the community your student calls home.<\/p>\n

Boston is especially beautiful in October \u2014 and right from campus, you can watch the Head of the Charles Regatta<\/a> as it unfolds along the river all weekend. Don\u2019t miss the chance to see the boats glide by with the fall colors as a backdrop! We\u2019ve also created a list of local restaurants and sites<\/a> as well as area hotels<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We love meeting our BU families! Whether you can join us in October 2026 or plan to visit another time, there\u2019s always something to explore \u2014 check out our guide<\/a> for year-round ideas.<\/p>\n
