On Friday 3 June, Royal Holloway Students’ Union will host our biggest commercial event of the year, the Summer Ball. Set in stunning grounds within the historical Founder’s Building quads, this established annual event sees 3000 students celebrate their end of year in style. With seven music arenas, DJs, bars and plenty of alternative entertainment, this is truly an event not to be missed.
Students are constantly deciding which brands to buy, use and trust for the first time, so attracting them to your product or service has a huge potential for generating long-term brand loyalty. There are 2.2 million students in the UK, each spending on average around £10,000 per year and they make up the most profitable group in the 18-24 age bracket.
