What is Picnic Day ?

Picnic Day is UC Davis' annual open house event and tradition. It is one of the largest student-run organization in the nation with over 70,000 attendees each year. Picnic Day is a time where friends, family, faculty, alumni and the Aggie community can come together and have a good time and learn about UC Davis as a campus and what this research university has to offer and its achievements. Picnic Day holds more than 200 exhibits and attractions ranging from the sciences to the arts. This year's theme and slogan is "Where the Sun Shines".
