Welcome Fayre 2025: Bigger, Better, Unmissable! 🎉

Ready to kick off your year in style? The Welcome Fayre is back and this time it’s bigger and better than ever, taking over Aberdeen Sports Village with everything you need to start uni life right.

Whether you want to join a club, try a new sport, meet new mates, or just soak up the vibes, this is the place to be. From crazy inflatables and live demos, to chill zones and furry friends (yes, real animals!), there’s something for everyone.

What’s on?

Get stuck in! Clubs, societies, and sports stalls will be everywhere. Join, sign up, or just ask questions. Fancy teaching a class or running a session? We want you! Got a cool idea? Let us know and we’ll make it happen.

Food & fun

Grab a slice of Domino’s, enjoy tasty street food from food trucks, and chill with Highland cows, goats, and other furry pals.

Massive inflatables & tunes

Bounce around on giant inflatables and vibe to great music all day long.

How to get involved:
