We Are Metric
We Are Metric gives you the opportunity to host a night in our new nightclub Metric. Open to Clubs, Societies and Projects as well as Halls of Residence, this is a great opportunity to team up with the Union Entertainments team to host club nights and events for your fellow students to enjoy.
Hosting one of these nights will be a great way to raise the profile of your group, as well as making a little bit of money for it. It is well worth your time and effort as it can help you to promote your group to other students and help them learn more about what you do. It will give them a chance to experience something new, and for your members it will be a fantastic opportunity to put on an interesting and exciting event for others to enjoy. The theme of the event doesn’t have to be tied into your group’s core activities; it could simply be an idea you’ve had that you think others will enjoy taking part in.
Although we want as many ideas and people to take part in this process as possible, there are also some things we don’t want. We would like events people can take part in and enjoy, this is what these nights are all about, however we don’t want events that people come along to simply for cheap alcohol and a cheap night. These nights are not bar nights or opportunities for budding nightclub promoters!
In the past there have been many successful events held by students such as Imperial Idol and Battle of the Bands. We are looking for more events like these. These webpages contain the information on this opportunity and the process to get your night chosen. There are also some example events to get your creative juices flowing!
To apply for a We Are Metric night fill in a request form and submit it. Then our Entertainments Committee will look at requests and then inform successful applicants. A date can then be booked and planning can start. The application process is now underway.
