LONDON FRESHERS FAQS
Eveything you need to know about freshers week.
What is Freshers Week?
Freshers week, also known as “Welcome Week”, sees thousands of students descend upon a new city as they move to university for the first time. Every university hosts a huge range of society meetups, freshers fairs, bar crawls and student club nights during freshers – giving everyone the chance to join university groups and meet new people.
At first, freshers week may seem quite daunting, especially if you’re moving away from your friends and family. You’re not quite sure what to expect and may find it difficult getting out of your comfort zone. Don’t worry, you’re not alone! We’re here to assure you that many students regard it as one of the best experiences of their lives.
If you’re staying with a university affiliated accommodation, there will be a ton of other ‘freshers’ within close proximity. Do take some time to unpack early, knock on a few doors to introduce yourself to your neighbours & flat-mates. You never know, they may end up being your ‘pre-drinks partners’ for the entire year! You can also expect to meet fellow first-years whilst attending several freshers events and socials, held at the town’s most popular bars and nightclubs. You can find a list of events in the ‘Freshers Tickets’ section above.
How much are the London Freshers Wristbands?
Our wristbands for each week start from as little as £20! This equates to just £2.85 per event! However, there are only a limited number available at this price so make sure you get them ASAP to save £££
How old do you have to be to attend?
All of the events we have organised are for individuals of the age 18 and over.
Can I bring friends who are not students?
Yes, that is completely fine! You do not have to be attending University to come to our events, however please ensure they are of a similar age to yourselves!
How does entry with a freshers wristband work?
We have made it super simple for everyone. Once you have collected your wristband, just pop it onto your wrist and just like at any festival, you show your wristband for entry to all the events on that particular wristband. It is near enough impossible to lose and the safest way to secure your entry!
Are the London Freshers Wristbands refundable?
Yes. If you do not get into a University in London OR you change your mind regarding attending a University in London, let us know by the 18th of August & we will refund your purchase in full! Refunds are only available to those who purchase their wristbands BEFORE July 30th.
If for some reason, government restrictions are imposed and nightclubs are temporarily closed during freshers, we will honour a full refund under such circumstances! For us to start the refund process, please email us on refunds@lowercasegroup.co.uk
I am not sure when my Freshers Week takes place or when I move into halls…. What should I do?
Email us with the University you will be attending and we will send you all the dates you need and the recommended freshers wristband(s) to buy. We will be releasing all of this information on our Instagram very soon! (Https://www.instagram.com/lowercaseevents)
We have a birthday to organise / Sports Team / Society Event to organise, can you help & provide us with any perks?
Of course we can! We work officially with several Universities & respective societies in London and can organise something special for you, whatever the occasion. Email us on freshers@lowercasegroup.co.uk
