Please note that the information below is regarding July 2024 graduation. 

After your graduation ceremony, everyone with a valid ticket is invited to an informal celebration as part of your graduation. Located in the Graduation Hospitality Zone at our High Wycombe Campus, you will find refreshments to enjoy whilst you celebrate your success. 

Entry to the Graduation Hospitality Zone is included with all tickets but refreshments are only included with the student and paid guest tickets (so the free lap seat tickets do not include any refreshments). You must have a ticket to gain entry and you cannot purchase a ticket just for this area. 

The celebration is optional and lasts approximately two hours, but you don’t have to stay for the full duration. As our High Wycombe Campus is based in the Town Centre, there venues close by you could chose to continue your celebrations at once the Graduation Hospitality Zone has closed, if that was of interest. 

Once information on the refreshments is available, it will be outlined below, so please keep an eye on this page. Please be assured that we cater for a wide range of dietary requirements.

We hope you decide to join us to celebrate all you have achieved!

The catering information for July 2024 graduation is still being finalised. Please continue to check back as we will update this page once this information is confirmed. 

Following your graduation ceremony, you are invited to join us in the Graduation Hospitality Zone for refreshments. The celebration is optional and lasts approximately two hours, but you don’t have to stay for the full duration.  

All graduating student tickets and the paid for guest tickets (so not the guest lap seat tickets) will include refreshment tokens. Please keep these tokens safe as you will need to redeem them for refreshments during the celebration. Lost tokens cannot be replaced.  

There will be no additional tickets to purchase just for the Graduation Hospitality Zone.
