University Special Events and Experiences

We're dedicated to delivering inspiring, strategic, purposeful events for the Wolfpack community — and helping others at NC State do the same.

The University Special Events and Experiences team works alongside NC State staff, faculty, students, alumni and friends to build institutional pride and unite the Wolfpack community through the production and management of many of the university’s events and programs.

We also offer resources and guidance for planning any event on NC State’s campus — including best practices, timelines, forms and regulations, and campus contacts.

If your event will include the chancellor, University Advancement or other university leadership, email specialevents@ncsu.edu.

We bring the NC State experience to life — and inspire the Wolfpack to Think and Do.

University Special Events and Experiences unites the NC State community when it’s time to celebrate — like announcing the final total for our Think and Do the Extraordinary campaign.
We work behind the scenes to elevate important NC State occasions, such as the visit of the Japanese prime minister — and North Carolina governor — to campus.
For the 2023 Chancellor’s Fall Address, we curated an out-of-this-world conversation between Chancellor Woodson and Christina Koch, NASA astronaut and three-time NC State graduate.
Each year, on Red and White Night, we dream up new and moving ways to tell the story of NC State to some of its closest friends and most generous donors.
We’re the force behind almost every key in-person communications experience at NC State — like honoring basketball legend David Thompson and his 44″ vertical leap.
