Family Weekend gives you the chance to experience Austin Peay and get a feel for what it’s like to be a Governor. You can expect a fun filled weekend with activities for the whole family!

Our schedule kicks off Friday, September 26th with a football pep rally and activities geared toward showing your student's experience at APSU. Saturday is all about the Govs- you included! First, you will start your day with brunch. Following brunch, check out the Family FUN Fair that will include engaging activities for all ages. Of course, the main event, our APSU Govs Football game! Help us cheer on the Govs as they play Utah Tech. 

On Sunday, the fun doesn't stop. We have coordinated with local businesses to provide coupons and specials for our APSU students and families. Check out all the community has to offer before you head to the Mudbowl. A nearly two decades old tradition, the Mudbowl, hosted by the Student Government Association, is a huge volleyball tournament hosted in two feet of mud. Join us as we celebrate those willing to get muddy as we enjoy food trucks, music, and more. 

We can't wait to show you a glimpse into APSU this September. Our tentative schedule and registration will open by April 15th. We will offer a $5/ticket discount purchased prior to June 1st and after this point a $5/ticket discount will be offered for those purchasing on an orientation day!

We're still finalizing the 2025 schedule, but check out our 2024 Family Weekend Schedule below:
