Blue & Gold Weekend 2024 | Regis University Magazine

Community | Connection | Kinship

More than 600 Regis alumni, parents, students, friends and family members came together on campus in September for the best Blue & Gold Weekend yet. The weekend was filled with events for people of all ages and interests – we explored Denver on a bus tour, celebrated class reunions, relaxed with yoga at Red Rocks, learned about our Ignatian heritage, enjoyed craft brews and food truck specialties, and much more.

We also brought Iggy Beer Fest back in a big way with a Queen cover band to commemorate 50 years since Queen performed their first US concert right here on campus. Hundreds of Regis Rangers ate, drank, danced and reconnected in way that only happens at Blue & Gold Weekend.

We hope you will join us the weekend of Sept. 20, 2025, for another magical weekend of community, connection and kinship right here at Regis.
