family reunion
Relatives assemble together
A family reunion is a gathering where extended family members come together, often annually, to reconnect and celebrate shared heritage.
These events typically involve relatives who don't see each other regularly—cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents—and may include food, games, and storytelling: The whole clan flies in for the family reunion every August.
