Welcome to the Michigan Union

About

Update: The Michigan Union remains open. For updated information on services and hours see https://uunions.umich.edu/looking-forward/

Welcome to the Michigan Union, one of the most beloved buildings on Central Campus. Impressive in stature and alive with activity, enter the Michigan Union and you’ll find yourself immediately immersed in the Go Blue! culture. The Michigan Union houses study and meeting spaces, six eateries, shops and student services. And it’s home to the IdeaHub for student organizations, run by the Center for Campus Involvement. While you’re here, be sure to stroll through the historic halls, enjoy the beautifully restored architectural details and imagine all the Wolverines who have come through the doors.

Road Closure Announcement:

Due to road construction on South University, you may want to avoid that street going to or from the Michigan Union from March 16 through the summer. Alternatives to State St. from the east are Hill, North University and Washington. Construction details follow:

Beginning Monday, March 16, U-M will close the northern lane between East University and State Street and operate westbound traffic in the southern lane.  Eastbound traffic will be closed.  Pedestrian detours will also be in place for portions of the northern sidewalk that close beginning next week; the south sidewalk will remain open.
During the week of March 23, it is expected that both lanes of South U between Tappan and State will close to through traffic to help expedite some early utility work.   We anticipate maintaining westbound thru-traffic between East University and Tappan. The work on South University is expected to last through move out and the summer. 

The Michigan Union is now open!

To learn more about these renovated spaces, we offer tours with a trained student guide. The tours have been suspended temporarily due to the COVID-19 precautions. Please check back later.
