Expect live demos, chill-out zones, music, freebies and even some furry friends—yes, real animals! 🐮🐐

What’s On? 👀

Get involved and discover everything your Students’ Union has to offer. Explore stalls from clubs, societies and sports teams, sign up for something new, or simply stop by for a chat.

Got a talent or idea you’d love to share? We’re looking for people to run classes, demos and sessions at the Fayre. Have an idea? We want to hear it!

Food, Music & Fun 🍕🎶

You won’t go hungry! Grab a slice of Domino’s, check out delicious street food from our food trucks, and take a break to meet some very special guests - including Highland cows, goats and other furry pals.

All this with tunes from Student Radio keeping the vibes going throughout the day.
