Graduation ball

Every year the GCU Student events team organises two official graduation balls – one for the summer and one for the winter graduates. Keep an eye out for upcoming news with regards to the venue and details of the Graduation Ball.

After all the hard work, this will be time to relax and enjoy yourself (yes that time does come). Enjoy a drinks reception, three course meal, wine and first class entertainment. Let us take the organising out of degree celebrations with this black tie occasion for you and your friends.

Get involved with the planning of the Summer ball and be part of the student committee, take away any financial risks or personal legal commitments during your final year. Take advantage of the knowledge and experience that exists within the University’s student events team while at the same time playing a key role in shaping your Graduation ball and adding something extra to your CV.

If you would like to get involved in organising the summer or the winter graduation ball please get in touch with the Student Events Team.
