Alumni Days 2026

Traditionally, the University of Twente organises a Lustrum Alumni Day every lustrum. All alumni are invited to return to Drienerlo for an inspiring homecoming. This year, instead of organizing a single day event, the UT will host a two-day event. On Friday 8th and Saturday 9th of May, the UT will host a festive and inspiring programme on campus. The activities are designed so that the entire UT Alumni Community, young alumni, mid-career alumni, pioneers and former employees can join in the activities they prefer.

Two days of activities. But you can join in whenever you want.
