Welcome to Friendsgiving 2024! (November 25th)

Duke International Student Center welcomes you to Friendsgiving, a term derived from a US holiday called Thanksgiving. It is a time to celebrate things that you're thankful for with friends. 

We will begin dinner at 6:00 p.m. in the Bryan Center on the level just below Duke Stores called The Landing.

• You are welcome to begin lining up at 5:30 p.m. at the top level of the Bryan Center at The Landing Ramp (near the glass conference rooms adjacent to the Bryan Center's West entrance) there will be staff to greet you.

• We have food for 250 people that will be served until it is gone, please try to arrive early to ensure that you can enjoy the meal, everything is Halal and there will be vegan and vegetarian options.

You can sit wherever you like within the Gothic Grill and intermediate level of the Bryan Center.

• We ask that upon departure please practice good housekeeping and throw away your plates and all other debris in the wastebaskets located throughout the building.

Every registrant has been limited to TWO (2) tickets only, please note that you now only have two tickets. The exception to this rule is if you are bringing children. 

• Please notify Azah directly if you fall into this category.
• Children ages 0-2 do not require a separate ticket. 
• You may not bring more guests than you have been approved for.
• If you are not able to attend the dinner, please update the reservation request in DukeGroups to NO; this will allow someone else to take part in this special dinner.

We are looking forward to spending this time with you, again if you are not able to attend, please cancel your reservation.

Thank you,
