Welcome to Strand.

Welcome Week, also known as Freshers' Week, is an exciting and dynamic period that marks the beginning of your journey at King’s College London. It's a week-long series of events and activities designed to help new students like you settle into university life, make new friends, and get acquainted with the campus and everything it has to offer. During Welcome Week, you'll have the opportunity to attend Freshers Fair, social events at KCLSU venues and much more. It's the perfect time to immerse yourself in the vibrant university community and start building lasting memories.

No worries at all! We understand that not everyone prefers alcohol-centric events. KCLSU is committed to providing a diverse range of experiences that cater to all students, including those who don't drink alcohol or just want to keep it low key.

If this is you, then our Welcome Bundles offer a variety of events that are designed to be more low-key and inclusive. Our aim is to ensure that every student feels comfortable, engaged, and welcomed, regardless of their preferences.

Whether you opt for the Freshers Wristband with its mix of events or the Welcome Bundle for a more relaxed experience, we're dedicated to making your Welcome Week enjoyable and inclusive. Feel free to select the option that aligns best with your interests and comfort level.

No, attending every event is not required. The Welcome Wristband provides you with the freedom to choose which events you'd like to attend during Welcome Week. If you prefer a more selective experience, our Welcome Bundles offer a tailored option with less events involved. The choice is yours, ensuring your Welcome Week suits your preferences and schedule.

Purchasing a KCLSU Welcome Wristband is a fantastic decision for several reasons:

1. Access to Exclusive Events: The wristband grants you entry to a wide array of exclusive events & parties tailored for new students during Welcome Week. From themed parties to society gatherings, these events provide the perfect opportunities to socialise, make friends, and create unforgettable memories.

    

2. Cost-Effective: Individually purchasing tickets for each event can add up quickly. The wristband offers you significant savings, as it provides access to multiple events at a single, discounted price.
