Looking to meet new people without the awkward small talk? Join us for Speed Friending – the fast, fun, and relaxed way to connect with fellow students!

Free entry and we’ll provide fun question sheets to guide your conversations, so there’s no pressure to come up with things to say. Expect friendly faces and easy icebreakers like:

🎬 What’s your favourite movie of all time?

🌍 If you could travel anywhere, where would you go?

👩‍💻 What’s your dream job in 10 years?

🎧 Who's your favourite artist?

🍕 Pineapple on pizza – yes or no?  

You’ll rotate each table in every 10 min, chat with loads of people, and maybe even walk away with new friends for life. Feel free to come late to just chat freely.

No preparation, just show up – we’ll handle the rest providing refreshments and let’s make meeting people easy (and actually fun). See you there!
