7th Annual Sibs Day - SOLD OUT
Saturday, February 18, 2023
Due to HIGH DEMAND for Sibs Day tickets (after a two year hiatus due to COVID-19), we are SOLD OUT of Sibs Day tickets as of 1/3/2023. We did add an additional 200 tickets in December and those have already sold as well. Unfortunately, we are unable to add anymore tickets due to capacity and safety issues that day.
Parent and Family Programs proudly host Sibs Day each spring semester. This event, for Georgia Tech students, has become a favorite of many families each year! Georgia Tech students are invited to host brothers, sisters, nieces, nephews, cousins, family friends -- you name it (ages 7-18) and give them a taste of campus life – Yellow Jacket-style! Parents and other guests are invited to join in the day as well, but please note that programming is geared toward children and teens.
