Texas Tech Family Weekend

Family Weekend at Texas Tech has been a tradition since 1936.

Family Weekend 2025 - October 24-26

Calendar of Events for 2025

In addition to the Texas Tech vs. Oklahoma State football game, there will be lots of opportunities to visit your student, see the Texas Tech campus, and learn about your student's academic life, all while having a great time in Raiderland! This calendar will be updated right up until Family Weekend begins, so check back to see events being added throughout the summer and fall. 

Discounted football tickets are on sale now! Please note: ticket inventory is limited. See our Family Weekend Football Tickets FAQ.
