Mendoza Weekend Playbook

Make Your Weekend Matter.
Football is a cherished tradition at Notre Dame. Why not make more of your weekend matter by enriching yourself, connecting with fellow alumni, or even taking time to meet some of our incredible students? Check back often as your weekend approaches for updates and new events.
Mendoza Rally
The Mendoza Rally is the perfect way to start your weekend on campus. Looking for something to do as you wait for the Pep Rally to start? Head to Mendoza’s courtyard from 4-6pm for light fare and beverages. Admittance is complimentary, however, we ask that you give of your time and attention by connecting with our current graduate students and faculty. These events are for adult Irish fans only, and we kindly ask that Mendoza alumni bring no more than one guest, if possible.

IrishCompass Game Day Groups
Harness the power of Notre Dame’s exclusive online community, IrishCompass, to connect with your fellow Mendoza alumni this football season. These Game Day Groups will give you a chance to let other IrishCompass users know which games you’ll be on campus for, and will give you the opportunity to find other alumni or students to connect with ahead of game day!
