We’re switching things up this year!

Instead of a happy hour, we’re hitting the lanes for a night of strikes, spares, and Black excellence. Join the UNF Black Alumni Association for Black Alumni Bowling Night as we kick off BAW ‘26 with food, laughter, and a little friendly competition. Whether you're a bowling champ or just here for the vibes, this is the perfect way to reconnect, relax, and roll into the weekend.

This one’s for the alumni who still like to step out—but also like to be back home before the streetlights come on. 👀

The Black Alumni Social: Pregame is the grown & sexy kickoff to Friday night. Think smooth R&B, strong drinks, and even stronger vibes—without the crowd of 18-year-olds still figuring out life.

We're pulling up with:

🍽 Free food
🥂 Free drinks (yes, the bar is open!)
💨 Cigars & hookahs available
🪑 Table reservations for you and your crew
🎶 Strictly R&B – no trap, no TikTok dances, just vibes

This space is curated for our 21+ alumni who want to reconnect, chill, and vibe without having to scream over a DJ playing Lil Uzi. You’re welcome to stay for the full Black Alumni Social, which opens up to the younger crowd at 11PM, or dip when the knees start clicking.

Includes entrance for 4

After the grown folks wrap up the Pregame, the energy shifts and the doors open for everybody to come celebrate a full decade of vibes, culture, and Black excellence.

This is Part Two of the night — the official 10th Anniversary of the Black Alumni Social, and it's the only place to be once the clock strikes 11.

Expect:
💃🏽 DJs spinning everything from classic R&B to new-age bops
🍽 Open Bar
🎉 A celebration of TEN years of memories, laughter, line dances, and late-night magic

At 11PM, the space becomes open to the 18+ crowd, so if you’re coming from the Pregame and want to stay, just hang tight — the night is just getting started.

This is more than just a party — it’s a homecoming for every class, every crew, and every memory made under the stars at The Backyard.

We’re bringing the heat to Lot 14 as we celebrate 10 years of The Tailgate—a true Black Alumni Week tradition. And this year, we’re opening up space for local Black-owned vendors to be part of the action!

Whether you sell food, fashion, skincare, or something in between—this is your chance to showcase your brand in front of hundreds of alumni, students, and supporters.

🛍 VENDOR DETAILS:

• Each vendor will be provided with a 10x10 space
• Vendors must bring their own tent, tables, and chairs
• No electricity or water hookups will be provided
• Set-up instructions and arrival times will be sent out the week of the event
• Spaces are limited, so early registration is highly recommended

From good music to good food to good vibes—this is the place to be during BAW '26. Come turn up AND turn a profit.

For questions or special requests, please contact us at [email protected].

Let’s celebrate a decade of excellence together!
