Event overview

AUB welcomes you to a highly anticipated Undergraduate Summer Shows 2025.

Our Summer Shows are an excellent representation of the values that are rooted in the University's culture – with a focus on innovation, collaboration, and passion at the heart of everything we do.

On the night of 10 July at 18.00, we open our doors and welcome students and their families, alumni and industry, and thousands of visitors to share the magic and be part of the dream factory that is AUB. Our campus is the perfect backdrop for this special occasion. We'll once again be turning the campus into a mini arts festival in celebrating our soon-to-be graduates.

A huge congratulations to all our artists, designers, makers, events managers, dancers, performers and actors who are exhibiting and being celebrated here tonight. We wanted to create an event for you to remember and talk about for years to come.

Expect a summer soundtrack curated live by TheGallery’s own professional DJ, William Hernandez Abreu, who's just got back from DJing in Ibiza.

We'll also have pop-up bars selling a range of drinks, a barbecue, and much more. There'll also be a maker’s market, where you'll find AUB students selling handmade items and work.
