MORE ABOUT THE ALUMNI PAVILION
The William and Carol Koester Alumni Pavilion is a unique spot on UToledo's Main Campus to gather and share your Rocket Pride with fellow fans. Thanks to the leadership philanthropy of William ('59, '60) and Carol Koester, and the generous gifts from alumni and friends, this facility will continue to serve the UToledo alumni and the UToledo community well into the future.
This space is available for alumni, faculty, staff and members of the community to host their own events! For more information, including pricing and capacity, click the button below:
The Alumni Pavilion honors our outstanding alumni, past Alumni Association presidents and donors. It also serves as a meeting place for alumni, community events and of course, our Pregame Parties.
