Our top tips for the best virtual Graduation party
Bring Leeds to you, wherever you are.
Whether you’re graduating on campus or you’ve never set foot in Leeds, we’ve got the top tips to help you throw a party to remember, Leeds Style.
From nights spent losing the Old Bar quiz to crafting the perfect campus playlist, our party tips will help you show you, your friends, and family a slice of campus life (with or without the bunnies).
1. Play the Leeds Playlist: made for students, by students
What song powered you through your last practical? Which playlist did you listen to for that much-needed library boost? Earlier this year, Leeds students came together to create a playlist that captured the Songs Behind their Studies. With a mix of classic Leeds belters and artists on the rise, we think it’s the perfect playlist to bring the Leeds music scene to your party.
