What is an alumni weekend?
The IES Abroad Alumni Engagement team hosts weekends at select IES Abroad Centers around the world where alumni can reunite with their classmates, meet other alumni, revisit their old stomping grounds, and make new memories with friends and family.
I did not study on this particular program, can I still attend?
Yes! The event is open to all those who studied abroad with IES Abroad or IES Internships.
Can I bring friends and family members?
Absolutely! In fact, we encourage it! Make sure to purchase the appropriate amount of tickets and record their information.
What are my airport, transportation and hotel options?
Attendees are responsible for their own transport and accommodations. See our Return to Guide(s) for a list of recommended hotels, restaurants, and popular activities in the city you are visiting.
What should I bring to the event?
Dress for the season, comfortable shoes and water bottles for walking tours, a camera, and charging converters are staples for the weekend!
Can I bring my child to the IES Abroad Alumni Weekend?
Yes! Children are welcome to join, but they must be registered if they will be taking a seat on a bus, at a table, eating a meal, or participating in an activity. Due to space limitations at some venues— where many events take place in historical buildings—we need an accurate headcount to ensure a smooth experience for all attendees. Please register your child in advance to help us plan accordingly.
