The Welcome Festival!

If there's one event you don't want to miss, it's this one

For generations of Leicester students, the Welcome Festival has been where friendships begin, flatmates become best mates, and your university story truly starts. Whether you're moving into halls for the first time or returning for another year, this is your chance to be part of a tradition that brings the whole student community together.

🧩 Have some friendly competition with our board games

🕹️ Put your reaction skills to the test with our Batak pro game

🎭 Try out a temporary tattoo (or two!) 

🍔 Bond with your fellow residents over free food, from Korean-inspired burgers and buffalo chicken to gyros, vegan options and more

🎵 All while enjoying some tunes from our local DJ

And if big events aren't your thing, there'll be quieter spaces available where you can relax, chat, and get to know people at your own pace

Locations: 

📍Students' Union, Percy Gee Building
