We are excited to be hosting our Winter Graduation celebrations at O2 Guildhall Southampton this year, 13-15 December.
We are looking forward to welcoming our graduands to the heart of the city at O2 Guildhall Southampton, to celebrate their achievements and create an opportunity for them and their loved ones to mark this occasion, as part of the University and Southampton community, with pride and joy. O2 Guildhall Southampton will also be the venue for graduation next summer.
O2 Guildhall Southampton is based in the heart of the city centre and is easily accessible, just 10 minutes from the railway station and with bus stops nearby.
- Celebrations will include a platform presentation, where graduands process across the stage within their programme and each have a handshake (or equivalent gesture) and individual names read out.
- Celebrations will be live streamed to ensure that graduands and supporters who are unable to travel to Southampton can still engage with and be part of their special day.
- Receptions will take place on Highfield Campus, with further details to be confirmed.
As usual, we will be inviting colleagues from across the University to be part of the graduation experience and asking for your help in making sure that this is a truly remarkable occasion that our graduates and their family will treasure. Further information about how to get involved will be shared in due course – in the meantime you can read more about Winter Graduation on the Graduation SharePoint site.
