What is Freshers Fair?

The SUBU Freshers Fair is a HUGE exhibition that is free to attend for ALL BU students. This is your chance to talk to 100's of SUBU Clubs and Societies, groups and find out about numerous volunteering and fundraising opportunities that are available to you to take part in alongside your studies. This is a great way to get more out of your time at BU!

There will also be a wide range of over 90 local and national businesses, fused together with live entertainment, sports demos, music, food and drink! There are absolutely loads of freebies and discounts that you can collect, so make sure you don't miss out!

All the Freshers' Fair bookings for the many SUBU clubs and societies are being organised by our SUBU Student Opportunities team, they will be in touch with all clubs and societies soon so make sure you fill out their form to secure a space!

Keep up to date with exhibitors attending this year by liking the Official Freshers Fair Facebook Page.

 

 

As this fair is on Talbot Campus, you can walk or we hire extra buses that pass through Lansdowne and near halls every 10 mins. A full time bus timetable will be available on this web page two weeks prior to the event.

The event will follow the most current government guideline on attending indoor and outdoor events. You MUST be wearing a face covering unless exempt. You must check in with the NHS track and trace app. You must be in a group of 6 or less. You MUST keep 2m distance from other groups and stalls. Sanitise hands on arrival and sanitation points throughout the fair. By reserving tickets and set arrival times, SUBU can safely manage the number of students in the fair at one time. Latest guidelines: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/coronavirus-covid-19-organised-events-guidance-for-local-authorities/coronavirus-covid-19-organised-events-guidance-for-local-authorities

If guidance permits you could do! However two hours will probably be enough to see all the stands.

We are revealing our brand lists and freebies over on the Facebook event and page. The first 4000 students will receive a goody bag containing lots of freebies. Stalls will also be giving out freebies, deals and tasters. Click Follow - https://www.facebook.com/FreshersFair Click Going - https://bit.ly/350PnVO

Saturday is SUBU focussed. This is the best time to come and meet all of the clubs & socs as well as finding out about other opportunities.

No unfortunately the event is restricted to BU students only due to Covid 19 restrictions.

You can sign up at www.subu.org.uk/volunteer or you can sign up at the fair once you have found out more about particular opportunities.

There will be a virtual online version of the fair available to visit through www.subu.org.uk
