Freshers 2026
Freshers Fair
09:00 - 16:00, Friday 18 September
Designed for larger brands looking to make a big impact, this opportunity puts your business in front of over 6,000 students in just 6 hours. We recommend branded giveaways and product samples to create lasting engagement beyond the event, alongside QR codes for quick and easy lead generation. Fast, interactive experiences work best, helping you connect with more students and maximise your brand exposure.
Student Life Fair
10:00 - 16:00, Thursday 17 September £500 + VAT for businesses, £100 + VAT for charities
This is primarily for employers, housing/accommodation industries, charities and volunteering organisations. We recommend one to one sign up activity on this day, although it is quieter than the Freshers fair. because of this, it doesn't tend to hold up queues and disrupt the flowthrough of the event. We usually see around 2000 students come to this event.
