Hello everyone,
This year marks the 11th Anniversary of the Summer Ball at Swansea University. It is a way of celebrating the end of another amazing academic year here at Swansea University with this annual sell-out event.
It is taking place on 13th June on the Abbey Meadow on the Singleton Campus. This event will host 5000 students over 6 arenas.
These 6 arenas include:
Ben Rees Stage.
In memory of Ben Rees, who was not only an important part of the Students’ Union Events department, he was a talented DJ and a sorely missed man within the Swansea community. Therefore Swansea University Students’ Union are hosting a huge part in his honour. This will include a fully decorated container stage, a giant stretch tent and support from the best DJs from Swansea’s favourite and biggest brands including Sink, Sin Savers, Tooters, Faux Pas, The Lighthouse Project, Rise in addition to a headliner or maybe two….
Enchanted Forest
This is the main stage which will reside between the trees, deep in the enchanted forest. This is billed as the main attraction and will showcase the best and brightest musical talent from all over.
The Treehouse
This stage will showcase the best of local musical talent from bands to solo artists. This stage is sure to keep you entertained throughout the day. Garb a cocktail from the Alchemy Station, and then… when the sun goes down… DJs from Hustle will encourage you to break out the disco mat and finish off the night in style.
