Black Family Day

🎉 Black Family Day 2025 — May 24 | 12–8 PM | UC Davis Quad

You’re invited to Black Family Day 2025, a vibrant celebration of Black culture, community, and legacy at UC Davis. Since its founding in 1970 by the Black Student Union, this annual event has grown into a cherished tradition that brings together students, families, alumni, and community members in joy and unity.

Join us on the UC Davis Quad for a full day of:

• Live performances by DJ KweKu, Shabbal Dance, Lady Mustangs, Stingerettes, Afro Vibes, Meraki, SAYS Youth Poetry Team, Brandon O. Bailey, NME Band, and John Mackk 
• Food and craft vendors featuring local businesses and delicious offerings 
• A lively Children’s Fair with games and activities 
• Engagement opportunities with student orgs and community groups 
• And the return of NPHC’s Stompfest from 6–8 PM! 

This is a family-friendly, inclusive event that celebrates the richness and diversity of Blackness. All are welcome, and the space is grounded in love, respect, and joy—with no tolerance for sexism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia.

Mark your calendars and come celebrate with us—there’s something for everyone!
