Graduation Ball 2026
UoNSU’s iconic Grad Ball is back for 2026! We are returning to Goosedale, set in the beautiful Nottinghamshire countryside for an evening guaranteed to make your memories of studying at UoN end on the highest of highs!
There are range of different ticket options available to ensure that you can choose what style of night is right for you; whether that’s a three course banquet with your closest friends or if you’re all about the party and enjoying some street food with a drink – there’s an option for everyone (see ticket type breakdown for more details).
There is a range of activities that everyone will be able to enjoy for the duration of the event, including free fairground rides, a stunning firework display and a range of DJs and musical acts including legends of the past and UoN’s best student musicians. We have also heard your feedback and curated even more great photo opportunities to make sure your memories from the night live long passed your graduation.
