University of Galway is celebrating a milestone for its alumni with a special event to bring the Class of 1975 back to campus for a 50-Year Reunion on Wednesday, 11 June 2025. 

 

The golden anniversary gathering is being held to offer graduates a unique opportunity to reconnect with classmates, reminisce about university days, and see how the campus has evolved over the past five decades. 

 

The day’s festivities will include guided tours of the campus, a visit to the University Library’s Special Collections and Archives and opportunities to revisit favourite student haunts. The celebration will culminate in a gathering in the college bar for entertainment. 

 

Catherine Conroy, Alumni Relations Manager at University of Galway, said: “We’re thrilled to welcome the Class of 1975 back to campus for this golden anniversary. A 50-year reunion is a truly special occasion – a time to celebrate lifelong connections, renew old friendships, and relive the moments that made university life so memorable.”
