Join our summer vacation events for our students staying on campus or in the local area over the summer vacation period. Open to all undergraduate students, regardless of year of study or college, these are a great way to meet others and have some fun. All of the events are free to attend although we do require people to register in advance so we can ensure we have enough materials, snacks and refreshments.

You can view information about Furness College, events and activities from across the University, and support in this useful Summer Vacation Guide

If you would like to attend any event, please booked your place on the College Community Events on LibCal at College Community Events - Events - Lancaster University

More information can be found on your College News and Events pages.
