Our Facilities
Our state-of-the-art facilities include the Harris Alumni Center at Johnson Glen and the Hauser Alumni Pavilion.
In addition to housing the UNC Charlotte Alumni Association staff offices, the Harris Alumni Center at Johnson Glen (HAC) offers approximately 4,900 square feet of meeting and event space. Since 2006, the HAC has served as a welcoming place to celebrate Niner spirit and an event venue for alumni, students, faculty, staff, community partners, local organizations and friends of the University. This space was named by the generous Harris Family.
The 8,000-square-foot Hauser Alumni Pavilion, which broke ground in 2015, is the home of our 49er Tailgate Village during the Charlotte 49ers football season. This space was made possible by a gift from alumni and active UNC Charlotte supporters David ’77 and Nancy Hauser ’77.
From business meetings and company retreats to wedding receptions and award banquets, our facilities serve as the perfect location to host your upcoming special events. A dedicated UNC Charlotte Alumni Association event manager will help you coordinate and oversee your event, as well.

We welcome alumni, students, faculty, staff, community partners, organizations and friends of the University to rent our facilities for upcoming events.
