Family Weekend 2024
September 13 - 15, 2024
Family Weekend is an opportunity for you and your family to return to campus and visit your student. Our office hosts a variety of events for guests to partake in, including Cardinal Nights: Casino Night, the traditional Family Tailgate and Sunday Brunch. PFA Cardinal Members also have the opportunity to attend the PFA Cardinal Member Reception on Friday night.
The Family Weekend registration is ($100) per person and includes:
- Family Weekend T-Shirt and Memorabilia
- Entrance to UARK Cardinal Nights (food available at event)
- Entrance to Family Tailgate (food available at event)
- Sunday Family Brunch
- Eligibility to purchase football tickets for a Razorback football game using a specialized link that will direct you to the discounted football tickets through the Razorback Ticket Office. This is a separate purchase with a separate login. Plan to purchase your football tickets early as tickets are limited.
Important:
- Football tickets are NOT included in packages. However, you will receive a specialized link after purchasing your Family Weekend package that allows you to purchase football tickets at a discounted price through the Razorback Ticket Office.
- Your student does not need to purchase a Family Weekend package to attend the Family Weekend events.

Family Weekend T-Shirts
One Family Weekend t-shirt is included in each Family Weekend package you purchase. We have sizes small through 3XL available for purchase.
Football Tickets
For every Family Weekend package purchased, you are eligible to purchase one football ticket, on a first-come, first-served basis. Note that your Family Weekend registration purchase does not include your football tickets, but simply makes you eligible to purchase a football ticket on a separate transaction at a discounted price. You will receive a specialized link in your confirmation email after purchasing your Family Weekend package that will take you to the Razorback Ticket Office.
NOTE: If you want your student to sit with you at the football game, you may use your specialized link to purchase their football ticket when you purchase your own through the Razorback Ticket Office. That is the only way to ensure that they will be seated with you.
Before You Place Your Order
Please read through our event descriptions and Family Weekend information carefully before placing your order to ensure that your order is accurate. Note that there are no refunds available for Family Weekend packages.
