What is Warwick Presents?

Three student helpers offer advice to two new students.

1) Your student events portal

Our team showcase activities happening at Warwick to help you make the most of your University experience, meet new people or just have fun.

It's our ambition to be the single place to find out about all of the extracurricular and co-curricular opportunities at Warwick. So that means anything outside of your department that helps you make the most of your University experience, meet new people or just have fun.

This autumn we’re developing a brand new website that will make it easier than ever to bring together social events at Warwick in one place, and we’ll be asking you to help shape our programme for the year ahead.

2) New events for you

We also work with students to design, fund and run a programme of free events and activities throughout the year so that there’s something for everyone to get involved with.

We design these events with and for students, focusing on:

  • Creating community
  • Helping you get involved in university life and make connections with others, especially people from different cultures
  • Providing events that are free, helping you socialise while keeping your costs down in difficult times

Look out for events with the Warwick Presents ★ icon.

3) How we work to improve your extra-curricular student experience

We work in a network of event organisers across the University and share student insights from all our activities to find out what works best, what’s missing and what you want to see more of.

We're taking a whole year to do a deep dive into what students really want from the Warwick Presents programme of events, activities, and projects in 2025/26. We're redesigning the programme—with you! Find out moreLink opens in a new window.
