Ustinov Day 2026 – A Celebration of Community
On Saturday 20 June 2026, Ustinov College and Ustinov Graduate Common Room were delighted to welcome alumni, students, staff, families, and friends to Ustinov Day 2026, held for the first time at Sheraton Park.
Celebrating the Ustinov Community
The event brought together members of the global Ustinov community for a day of celebration, connection, and fun, showcasing the vibrant spirit, diversity, and sense of belonging that make Ustinov College such a special place.
Throughout the day, visitors enjoyed a fantastic programme of activities and entertainment, including live music, sports and games, arts and crafts, face painting, family-friendly activities, and a variety of food and refreshments.
A particular highlight of the event was the opportunity for alumni to reconnect with former classmates and staff while meeting current students and experiencing life at Sheraton Park. The day reflected the strong sense of community that continues to unite Ustinovians across generations and around the world.
A Landmark Event at Sheraton Park
Hosting Ustinov Day at Sheraton Park for the first time marked an important milestone for the College and provided a wonderful opportunity to open our doors to the wider Durham and Ustinov community.
Throughout the day, the site was transformed into a vibrant festival atmosphere, with activities and entertainment for all ages.
Looking Ahead
We would like to thank everyone who attended, volunteered, performed, organised activities, and helped make the day such a memorable occasion. The enthusiasm, energy, and support shown throughout the event created a fantastic atmosphere and demonstrated the strength of the Ustinov community.
We look forward to welcoming alumni, students, staff, families, and friends back to future College events and celebrations.
