Monday 16 - Friday 20 November

Expect the heart of campus to come alive with a week of cultural celebrations, as we bring our global community together. Experience henna for the first time, discover a love of salsa, or find something familiar in another culture’s food. We hope these moments will spark conversations, reveal connections and inspire you to learn more about each other.  

In an increasingly polarised world, it's never been more important to come together, share our ideas, our heritage and celebrate what makes us different.
