FloURIsh Fest 2025

September 19, 2025

FloURIsh Fest is an annual wellness festival hosted by Campus Recreation at the University of Rhode Island. Held each fall on the Quad, the event brings together over 40 campus departments, student organizations, and local businesses to promote holistic well-being across five key pillars: emotional, physical, intellectual, social, and financial wellness.

What to Expect at FloURIsh Fest

  • Interactive Booths & Activities: Explore booths from various organizations offering information, resources, and activities related to wellness.
  • Raffles & Giveaways: Participate in raffles for a chance to win curated prize bundles. Students can earn raffle tickets by visiting booths and engaging with the event.
  • Food Trucks: Enjoy a variety of food options from local vendors, including treats from URI Dining Services and the Dunkin’ truck.
  • Free T-Shirts: The first 250 attendees receive a limited-edition FloURIsh Fest T-shirt.
  • Games & Entertainment: Engage in fun activities such as tie-dye stations, inflatable obstacle courses, and live music.
  • Community Engagement: Connect with student organizations, campus departments, and local businesses dedicated to student well-being.

FloURIsh Fest is free and open to all URI students, faculty, and staff. It’s a great opportunity to learn about resources available on campus, meet new people, and have fun while focusing on personal well-being.
