We are starting the summer right with a whole host of free events and activities to help you celebrate the end of term in style and get in the summer spirit. Returning for another year, running from Thursday 9 June to Friday 17 June, the University and SUSU have collaborated to bring you Summer Festival 2022.
The line-up is jam-packed with fun, active and delicious activities, with something for everyone. Just a handful of programme highlights include Goat Yoga – an experience like no other combining the benefits of animal therapy and exercise, live music, a photobooth and a 3km Colour Fun Run to kickstart the festival activities.
The Colour Fun Run: headline event
Whether you want to run, jog, walk, skip or hop, anyone can join the Colour Run at any pace, with coloured powder to throw on route. There will also be music, inflatables, giant lawn games, and food stalls on the day, as well as travel options to get you to and from our Highfield, Winchester and Avenue campuses. Claim your ticket fast – register for the Colour Fun Run on Eventbrite.
