This will be an extra special session in celebration of the 5th Anniversary of BUNS! The “BUNS 5th Birthday Party” will be on Tuesday 17th of March 6pm-9pm in our usual room: 5.22, 5th Floor of Senate House. We aim for it to be an enjoyable and accessible evening to celebrate everything great about BUNS. It will be an informal event like our usual sessions so casual clothing is fine, but if you would like to, you would be welcome to wear something fancy.
This event will REQUIRE A TICKET purchased here on the SU website. Tickets are £5, but if the cost is a barrier to you being able to attend, please contact us at bristolunindsoc@outlook.com as we can provide discounted “Pay-it-forward" tickets to those who need.
Ticket Deadline: The official deadline to buy your ticket will be 11am on the 17th of March, but please buy your ticket as soon as you know you will be attending (the earlier the better) so we know roughly how many party bags to make, etc several days before the event.
The event will begin with a basic food buffet consisting of pizza, fruit juice, fizzy drinks and various snacks (like we usually have, but more of them!). When purchasing your ticket, please indicate via the ticket questions whether you will be having Pizza or not and if so, which type (Vegetarian Margherita or Vegan Margherita), so we can ensure that we order the correct amount of each. If neither Pizza options are suitable for you, please email us and we will see if we can accommodate your dietary needs. Our plan is to order one large Domino's Pizza per three attendees, who have indicated they’ll be having Pizza, so everyone should get a few slices each. We will also have a custom BUNS birthday cake as well as a zone to decorate your own iced buns!
You are welcome to arrive and leave whenever you would like to during the session, but please see the schedule below for what you may miss depending on when you are there.
