With the help of our army of volunteers, the WSUAA hosts over 700 events around the nation each year, and our valued members often receive first priority for registration, discounted admission, and special members-only gifts. You can find our full event calendar here.
Homecoming
This weekend is packed with exciting events and traditions from the WSUAA. Friday night features an exclusive
Feast of the Arts dinner, along with a fun Bonfire and Pep Rally, followed by the annual Platinum Life and Life Member reception to get the Cougs ready to win at Saturday’s Homecoming game!
Reunions
Each year, the WSUAA hosts a special Diamond and Golden Grad Reunion for graduates on their 50 or 60 year anniversary. Attendees celebrate this milestone by reconnecting with classmates and their beloved university, as they discover exciting research, hear from our university leaders, and soak up the present-day WSU experience.
The PreGame
The PreGame is WSU’s official tailgate before away football games. Each PreGame features delicious food and drinks, Cougar gear from The Bookie, an appearance by Butch, music, and more — all with your fellow Cougs on the road.
The Feast
This international gold medal-winning dinner series features the best-of-the-best that WSU has to offer. Attendees enjoy an incredible five-course meal prepared by WSU Executive Chef Jamie Callison and his students, along with individual premium wine pairings from a featured Cougar-connected winery.
Football Watch Parties
The WSUAA has Watch Parties around the country for all football games, so you can always watch the big game with your fellow Cougars. Last year, we hosted 520 different locations over the season, so make sure to check out ones near you.
