Froebel College comes together once again to celebrate the end of the year! Join us for our annual Boat Party on the evening of Tuesday 21st May to celebrate in style while cruising along the Thames with your friends.

This year we'll be combining our annual Froebel Celebration event with the Thames Boat Party so we can enjoy the trip and see the sights whilst also celebrating another year in the life of the College and thank those who have contributed to our community during the year.

After selling out year after year, tickets for this event are expected to move very quickly so buy now to avoid disappointment! 

The cruise will take us past many of the amazing sights in London: Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament, Tower Bridge, the Millenium Dome, the London Eye and much more! There will be a bar on board so you can buy alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. More importantly, we'll have a specially selected DJ who'll be playing all night and a huge dance floor to move on!

Tickets are available to purchase for all Roehampton students. Students are also able to purchase up to two more tickets for other students or guests from outside the university. Tickets cost £15 + booking fee and are non-refundable.
