Paul Sinha

Direct from a run at Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and straight from ITV’s ‘The Chase’, Paul ‘The Sinnerman’ Sinha will be bringing his comedy show to campus especially for you! Tickets are priced at £6.

When: Tuesday 17 September, 7pm
Where: Mountford Hall, inside the Guild.

Baltic Food Market

Liverpool is a city known for its food and the Baltic Market is one of the top destinations for all you foodies! This street food market, the first of its kind in the city, is located right at the heart of the Baltic Triangle, Liverpool’s creative quarter. It’s worth a trip to take in the wall-art, live music and, of course, great food – we have two words for you…Halloumi…Fries!

When: Wednesday 18 September, 5pm
Where: Baltic Market, Stanhope Street. Please present your student ID upon arrival.

Welcome Party

What’s your go-to song at karaoke? Get thinking, because this year’s Welcome Party will take you through a mixtape of all your favourite songs to sing in the shower, car, or into your hairbrush! Don’t worry though, you won’t need to take the mic yourself as it’s a ‘Massaoke’, so you and all your new friends can belt out the classics together!

When: Sunday 15 September, 9pm
Where: Mountford Hall, the Guild. Free buses from Greenbank Student Village leave at 8.30pm.
