The GO! Programme

GO! Socials are a great way for students from all backgrounds to meet and form friendships in a safe, friendly, and welcoming environment.

All our events are advertised on our Native events' page where you can get tickets to come along. We hope that, through these events and activities, you'll be able to build a great network of friends and get fully involved in the university community.

Some examples of successful GO! Socials we have held before include:

• International Welcome Days
• GO! Beach Meets
• GO! Walk / Explore - helping you find your way around Swansea
• Active Socials - a chance to try out new sports and activities
• Halloween Pumpkin Carving
• St David's Day Coffee and Quiz Afternoon
• Easter Scavenger Hunt
• Lunar New Year Celebration

And many more! Be sure to follow our social media channels so you keep up to date with what's going on!

GO! Trips give students the opportunity to discover places, in Wales and beyond, that they might not usually get to see!

We regularly arrange day trips to places of interest and beauty, history and culture, as well as shopping and fun, throughout the year. Mostly these are in Wales, giving you the chance to learn about and discover this small but beautiful country – although we do offer trips across the border to England too (and we are always looking for new and interesting locations!).

GO! Trips are designed to give those attending an introduction to their new area, an opportunity to make memories and see things they might not see otherwise. They are also an absolutely fantastic way to build friendships and grow our community.

If you’re not currently here in Swansea, we’ve also designed some interactive Virtual GO! Trips which you can find here

For information and announcements on upcoming trips, be sure to follow our social media channels on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter - search @CampusLifeSU. You can also sign up with our Campus Life ticketing website to secure your place and buy tickets for future events.

Some of our previous and upcoming GO! Trips include:

• A tour of the Gower Peninsula – the beautiful countryside and beaches just minutes from our campuses
• Cardiff City Centre – the Capital of Wales has amazing culture, shopping, and history
• Tour of Castles – Wales has more castles per person than almost anywhere else
• Tenby – a beautiful traditional welsh seaside town with loads to do including sea-life spotting boat trips
• Manor Wildlife Park – Wales’s walk-through zoo and safari, with animals as diverse as meerkats and tigers
• Bristol – home of amazing street art and our closest English neighbour, it’s an awesome city
• And many more

Always a fun night, each month we pay a visit to an independent, Swansea based restaurant with a different cuisine to share a meal together.

GO! Eat gives students the chance to enjoy with new friends in a relaxed and fun environment while trying a new cuisine - often something they may not have tried before! We usually arrange a set meal for just £10 per person, so the night is also affordable. For details on future GO! Eat evenings check our ticket buying website Campus Life (swansea.su).
