If you just feel like kicking back and hanging out with your new flatmates, why not head on down to The Warehouse? With plenty of drinks on tap, a wide variety of food and drink as well as a wonderfully chilled out atmosphere, The Warehouse is the perfect student hang out. www.thewarehouse huddersfield.co.uk
If you’re into partying till the early hours then the Camel Club truly is the place to be. For those who like to get down on the dance floor, the Camel Club has different music theme nights to suit everyone’s taste from classic rock anthems and 90s smash hits to electro pop. www.camel-club.co.uk
Open mic and acoustic nights regularly take place at Bar 1:22 – a live music venue and bar that hosts weekly music events ranging from reggae nights to open mic nights where anyone can get on stage and show their hidden talent.
Unsure of where to go to see the latest action blockbuster or chick flick? Right next door to the John Smith’s sports stadium is the Odeon, Huddersfield’s home of popcorn and rom coms. The HudMovies society also hosts regular free movie screenings for students on campus. www.huddersfield. su/groups/hudmovie
