Party after dark Doing something different after dark is an exciting part of university life. Gloucester city and Cheltenhamtown are both nearby and arewhere our students often head towhen night falls. From clubs and cocktail bars, to gigs and a night at the cinema, there’s something to suit all tastes. If you're heading out for dinner with friends, you’ll find world cuisines, pub food, and everything in between at Gloucester Quays – the newly developed dockland is a popular destination for our students.

Enjoy a great night out in Gloucester, one of the top three safest counties in the UK* *Office for National Statistics (2019)

Kick back at music or arts festivals Gloucestershire is widely known as the UK’s ‘festival county’. It’s perfect for those of you who love to kick back at weekends and have fun. From the internationally-acclaimed Cheltenham literature, science and music festivals to the famous 2000trees festival, there’s always something going on. You’ll find over 45 music and arts festivals every year.

That’s one almost every weekend. The highlights of our year Our epic student parties and highly

anticipated Summer Ball are what students look forward to most each year. Recent acts have included Rak-Su, Sigma, Katy B, Lethal Bizzle, Scouting for Girls, Labrinth, Chase and Status, and BBC Radio One DJs Greg James and Scott Mills.
