About this Event
The BIG Student Lock-In: Freshers Finale is London’s biggest free student day out, and the ultimate way to close out Freshers.
One iconic venue. Thousands of students. A full day packed with free food and drinks, live DJs, games, giveaways, vintage pop-ups, CV workshops and immersive brand experiences. If you’re only doing one more Freshers event, make it this one.
We’ve built EIGHT interactive zones so there’s something for everyone:
🌿 The Courtyard – Food trucks, drinks, live music and the kind of atmosphere that gets the whole group together.
📸 Creator Moments – Standout photo spots and content-worthy backdrops from the moment you arrive.
🎮 Digital Playground – VR experiences, gaming challenges, leaderboard battles and prize vaults.
✨ The Culture Lab – Fashion, beauty and self-expression, with hands-on experiences and plenty to discover.
💄 Lifestyle Lounge – Free samples, beauty try-ons, wellness moments and our Glow Booth.
💼 Future You – Free headshots, CV clinics, travel inspiration and graduate opportunities to help you get ahead.
🍔 The Terrace – Grab some food, recharge with friends and soak up the atmosphere.
🛍️ Discovery Market – Vintage, thrift, charity stalls, live printing and customisation experiences you won’t find anywhere else.
Tickets are completely FREE—but they’re limited. To unlock competitions, claim prizes and access giveaways, you’ll need to check in and scan your ticket when you arrive.
Freshers only happens once. Finish it properly.
Grab your ticket, round up your flatmates and LOCK IN. 🔒
