With Halloween festivities not quite over just yet, and a dizzying mixture of black-tie balls, student theatre, workshops and raves on offer, Week 8 is bound to keep us all busy.
Fright Night, Monday 31st October at 10:30pm
The Union is hosting their annual whole-building Halloween party, which is always a sell-out. With themed cocktails in Beacon Bar, the chance to win an £100 prize for the best costume and tickets priced at a modest £10, enjoy a Halloween party that doesn’t break the bank.

The History Boys, Tuesday 1st November at 7:30pm

Laundry Club: Learn to Mix, Saturday 5th November at 1pm
Always wanted to have a stint behind the decks? Join Dance Worm as they bring together some of St Andrews’ best collectives (think Behave, Szentek, Down to Funk and Wax) for a mixing workshop aimed at female and non-binary aspiring DJs. For more information: rb.gy/0ynwp4
Welly Ball, Saturday 5th November at 6:30pm/10pm
After a busy Halloween weekend, perhaps what you want is a quiet night in – but Welly Ball is definitely not one to be missed. Bringing together students from St Andrews and further afield for one of the largest university black-tie events in the country, featuring a sit-down dinner followed by an afterparty, Welly Ball is consistently one of the highlights of the town’s social calendar. If you’ve been lucky enough to get your hands on an afterparty ticket after they sold out in under a minute, don your favourite pair of wellies and head to Falside Mill for a night to remember.
