The Princeton Reunions are an annual college reunion event held every year on the weekend before commencement at Princeton University. It is known as the most well-attended college reunion in the world, as well as the largest single order of beer after the Indy 500. Known simply as "Reunions", this event brings back to campus upwards of 20,000 alumni, and at least that many guests, for a four-day celebration featuring large outdoor tents, elaborate costumes, sporting events, alumni and faculty presentations, fireworks, bands from rock to swing, and oceans of beer.
