CULS Law Ball Programme 2021

THE 120TH ANNIVERSARY LAW BALL

A CHRISTMAS CAROL

Welcome

We are delighted to welcome you to the Cambridge University Law Society’s 120th Anniversary Law Ball. We hope you have a wonderful evening.

We would like to begin by thanking the Ball Committee for their dedication in bringing the event together, as well as the CULS Executive Committee and Yasmin Dugdale for her graphic designs.

Further, thanks must go to our sponsor, Hogan Lovells, whose generosity has allowed us to provide much of the food, drinks and entertainment which you will enjoy throughout the Ball. The night would not have been possible without Ed and his team at the Great Event Company, Brasted’s, Banquet Inn and all of our other fantastic suppliers.

Now get ready to experience Christmas Past, Present and Future, we can’t wait for you to see what is waiting you in the land of A Christmas Carol.
