Fresh Festival Info and wristbands

 

Scam Warning!: Every year, external companies advertise Leicester Freshers events. These events might be legitimate, but we can’t be sure that the event will be well organised or safe. In some instances, these events do not happen and the “organisers” do not offer refunds. Official event tickets are only being sold via Rockstar Promotions either online or on the app. We recommend sticking to those to avoid getting scammed.
