Alternative Guide to May Week 2018

Page 3

COLLEGE CRAWL: Colleges are once again open for business! With loads of green areas within colleges to sit and relax, why not go on a tour and visit a bunch of colleges that aren’t your own. John’s, Christ’s, Newnham, to name a few, make for some great days out with amazing green spaces and gardens. As a member of the University you can enter and walk around any college (although they tend to get strict when they begin to set up for their balls). BUMPS: With Bumps running from 13th-16th June there’s plenty of time to watch the fun and carnage that is Bumps! Whether you’re there to support your college or friends, or just have a day out, it’s a nice way to get outside the city centre and soak up the sun (hopefully!) on the grass next to the river. THEATRE & MUSIC CONCERTS: There are loads of college May Week shows and concerts, with cheap entry. Many are outdoors, so can be a great way to relax in the sun and watch some plays or listen to great music. Some will be featured in this guide but keep checking Camdram and Facebook for others that may pop up! VISIT MUSEUMS: There are eight University Museums and Collections in Cambridge that you can visit for free! For more information and to check out the exhibitions on offer, visit www.museums.cam.ac.uk. They range from the Botanical Garden, which is home to plants from all around the world, to Kettle’s Yard, which recently reopened following renovation.
