FRESHERS 2024

We want to make sure you have the best start to Arts University Plymouth and we want to help you all settle in.

We want to be as inclusive as possible so we've planned events to suit everybody, from tours of the city to bar nights in the Students' Union, as well as events for LGBTQ+ students, mature students, international students and more.

All of our events are ticketed and admission-free, so that you can grab your space at any of our Freshers activities and won't have to worry about missing out. We've planned events on campus and events in the city, to help you get to know both the University and your new home!

Looking for events beyond the three weeks of Freshers? Head to our Events tab.
