All the events you need to attend for a spooktacular week
We hope you have your costumes at the ready!
Freya BrownHalloween is fast approaching, and it’s every student’s favourite time of year. Boys get to do that thing where they take a white t-shirt and dowse it in ketchup, and girls are handed an excuse to wear as little clothes as possible. Fun and games all round.
However, for students, Halloween is rarely a one-night event. Celebrations and boozing usually lasts for the whole week. So, here’s a guide to all the events happening in Sheffield this year for Halloween week.
Halloween Purge @ Network – Mon 31st Oct
The Halloween Purge takes place at Network this year for its eighth consecutive year.
There’ll be nothing short of immersive visuals, interactive acts and professional makeup artists on hand.
Better yet, the best fancy dress means creepy prizes!
Tickets and more info is available here.
Dirty Deeds @ Corp – Sat 29th Oct
With £1.20 vodka mixers, 90p Sourz, and three J-Bombs for £6, Corp is boasting four rooms of madness to choose from.
