Great UK events to enjoy
There’s so much to tell you about great events in
the UK! We’ve chosen just a few of our favourites
here, and there’s more about fantastic music
festivals on page 6.
1
Burns Night, 25 JanuaryScots at home and abroad celebrate the poet
Robert Burns’ birthday, 25 January, with a
ceremonial supper of haggis (a ball-shaped
sausage of lamb, onions, oatmeal and spices).
Traditionally a piper serenades the haggis as it’s
brought to the table.
2 London Fashion Week, February
Twice a year, in February and September,
trendsetters flock to Somerset House in London
to see 50 official catwalk shows and exhibitions
that showcase work from the world’s top
designers.
3 Jorvik Viking Festival, February
York’s Jorvik Viking Centre celebrates the 8th
century Viking invasion of England with
demonstrations, authentic costumes and plenty of
chances to learn more about the ancient era.
4 Ten Tors Challenge, May
This is tough: 400 teams of six teenagers meet on
Dartmoor, one of Devon’s great wildernesses, for
the Ten Tors challenge. Depending on age, they
hike 35-55 miles (56-88km) in 36 hours crossing
rivers, streams and bogs on the way.
5 FA Cup Final, May
At the end of the UK football season, the FA Cup
Final is played at Wembley stadium. Tickets are hard
to find but you can watch it live on TV.
6 Wimbledon, June/July
Wimbledon is the only Grand Slam tennis event still
played on grass. Watch top players such as Murray,
Nadal, the Williams sisters and Maria Sharapova
battle for the trophies.
7 Boardmaster Festival, August
If you like surfing, skating or BMX biking, the four-day
Boardmaster Festival in Cornwall, south-west England,
is for you. Every year, Newquay welcomes thousands
of visitors to Fistral Beach to watch boarders perform.
8 Eisteddfod, August
The National Eisteddfod, Wales’s top cultural festival,
celebrates ancient Welsh history and the Welsh
language with music, literature, culture, dance and
theatre, and good food.
9 Edinburgh Festival, August
The Scottish capital is completely taken over by
the Edinburgh Art Festival and Fringe as performers
entertain the visiting crowds. The 2013 Fringe was
huge: 2,871 shows and 24,107 performers in
273 venues!
10 Bristol Balloon Fiesta, August
Bristol in England is the ballooning capital of
Europe, and this is spectacular: more than 150
hot-air balloons of all shapes and sizes take to
the skies above the historic estate of Ashton
Court.
11 Belfast Comedy Festival, September
Belly Laughs is Belfast’s funniest festival, with more
than 40 acts over 20 days. It celebrates Northern
Ireland’s rich comedy heritage. Find out what makes
Belfast laugh.
12 Great North Run, September
Fancy running the world’s biggest half-marathon?
About 50,000 runners start the race in Newcastle
city centre and finish in the coastal town of South
Shields, with live bands along the way.
13 Bonfire Night, 5 November
Bonfires and spectacular firework displays light up
the sky across the UK in early November. Battle, in
East Sussex, has a torch-lit parade with people in
fancy dress before the fireworks begin.
14 Pantomime season,
December-January
Traditional UK pantomime takes over many theatres
during the Christmas season. Familiar fairy tales are
reworked to entertain all the family. Look out for the
dame (played by a man), the principal boy (a
woman), the pantomime horse (two actors in a
single costume), and the villain - he’s behind you!
15 Hogmanay, 31 December
The last day of the year, Hogmanay, is a huge
celebration in Scotland. At Edinburgh’s big street
party, everyone links arms to sing Auld Lang Syne.

6 7Education UK www.educationuk.org
Music is a national obsession in the UK – an
obsession that has helped to produce some of
the world’s best and most innovative music.
Throughout the UK, you will find thousands of live
music events each day – from pop, rock and
dance to classical, RnB, metal and jazz. For a truly
unique experience, why not check out sometraditional UK folk music? Get ready for fast-paced
fiddles, pounding drums and beautiful vocals.
One of the best – and cheapest – ways to enjoy
live music is to go to a gig (a small concert in a
pub or small music venue, usually free or charging
a small fee). Gigs are a great place to check out
up-and-coming bands.
Bigger concerts for popular bands and classical
music are usually held in purpose-built concert
halls, football stadia or theatres. Your Students’
Union might host concerts too.
From May to September every year thousands of
people in the UK set off with tents and backpacks
to have a great time at the UK’s festivals.
Big, quirky and loud festivals
Over on the banks of Loch Ness (keep your eyes
open for the Loch Ness monster!) 35,000 fans of
all ages turn up in fancy dress for three days of
RockNess. The perfect place to dance the
weekend away in beautiful surroundings.
Orkney Folk Festival in May has fantastic
traditional music, ceilidhs (Gaelic dancing), a
fiddlers rally and much more.
T in the Park is Scotland’s biggest festival. Every
year in July, 80,000 fans come to Balado in the
heart of Kinross-shire for three days to enjoy great
acts such as Mumford and Sons and Snoop Dogg.
September sees Festival No 6 in Portmeirion: ‘a
festival unlike any other, in a place like no other’.
Perched in an Italianate village above the River
Dwyryd in North Wales, it’s a gorgeous setting for
live music, arts and culture.
Head to Wales’s Black Mountains for the four-day
Green Man Festival in August: music, comedy,
arts, poetry and literature in a stunning location.
For eight days in July, Rostrevor in County Down
hosts the Fiddler’s Green Festival, with folk,
blues, country and classical music. Great scenery,
free outdoor music and good craic (Irish for fun).
Glasgowbury, in Derry-Londonderry (City of
Culture 2013) in July, is Northern Ireland’s l argest
independent outdoor music. See emerging as
well as established performers.
BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend in May, is Europe’s
biggest free ticketed music event with top names
appearing live. This event takes place in a
different place each year.
In June most years, 150,000 fans descend on
Somerset for the five-day Glastonbury Festival,
a feast of bands, DJs, comedians and
performance artists and big-name acts such as
U2 and Coldplay. Pack your welly boots as well: if
it rains the site is very muddy!
Manchester’s International Festival (June/
July) is a major showcase for new and emerging
talent, with great music and pop-up events, art
exhibitions and shows.
Late in August the two-centre Reading/Leeds
Festivals combine to make a great three-day
rock festival with top bands such as Greenday,
Biffy Clyro and Eminem.
V Festival has rock and pop bands appearing inHylands Park (near Chelmsford) and Weston Park
(near Wolverhampton) at the same time.
Epic music performances and fancy dress are all
part of Bestival on the Isle of Wight in
September, the perfect way to end the summer.

Shopping and
entertainment
To make the most of your experience time in the UK, be
sure to explore all that your campus and city have to offer.
To save money, have a look at the NUS (National Union
of Students) extra card or ISIC (International Student
Identity Card). Many shops, restaurants and theatres offerstudent discounts.
Students’ Unions: Typically the social heart of any
campus, the students’ union is a great place to meet
friends, eat or grab a coffee between lectures, watch live
music and lots more. Prices are usually low.
Shopping: If you’re a shopaholic then you’ll love the UK’s
high streets, department stores, and shops selling vintage
clothes and second-hand goods. You might even pick up
some fantastic bargains!
Cafes and restaurants: The UK is a great place to
discover many world cuisines. You’ll find world-famous
restaurants, cheerful cafes serving great food at modest
prices, and street stalls selling mouth-watering snacks.
Look out for ’early bird’ deals (usually until 6 or 7pm).
Theatre and dance: The UK has a long tradition of
fantastic theatre and dance with great home-grown and
international actors and artists. You can often find special
offers for tickets that won’t break the bank. (See page 18
for more about music festivals.)
Comedy: No visit to the UK is complete without going to
a comedy night and getting to know British humour! Many
top stand-up comedians perform at students’ unions and
pubs, where tickets are often cheaper.
Pubs: You don’t have to drink alcohol to go to the pub (a
sociable destination for adults in the UK). You’ll find
non-alcoholic drinks, and many pubs offer food and
entertainment. Choose friendly pubs where you feel safe
and comfortable (ask staff or students at your college or
university for recommendations.)

You’re never far away from spectacular scenery when
you’re in the UK. So pack your backpack, put on your
walking boots and discover what makes the UK such a
great country!
1 Snowdonia mountains and coast
Head to the Llyn Peninsula in Wales, one of the UK’s
protected Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Fabulous sandy beaches and dramatic cliffs skirt the
sea at the western edge of the Snowdonia National
Park, where you will find Wales’s biggest mountains.
2 Lake District
The 16 lakes and many tarns (smaller mountain pools)
that make up the Lake District are a wonderful
backdrop for walkers, cyclists and boating enthusiasts.
Home to England’s highest peak, Scafell Pike, and the
deepest English lake, Wastwater, the Lake District is
England’s largest national park, full of dramatic views
over lakes and pikes (peaks), with pretty villages.
Mourne Mountains
In Northern Ireland, people sometimes call the Mourne
Mountains ‘a giant’s carpet that sweeps down to the
sea’. This wild and mysterious landscape inspired the
writer CS Lewis to imagine Narnia. With dozens of
granite peaks crowded into a small area, it’s a great
place to walk, with fantastic views on a clear day.
3 Giants’ Causeway
Located in Northern Ireland, on the stunning North
Atlantic coast, Giants’ Causeway is a popular nature
spot and UNESCO World Heritage Site. According to
legend it was created by a giant. The site, made up of
hundreds of basalt columns, was formed by ancient
volcanic eruptions. Now owned by the National Trust,
the Causeway has wonderful flowers and wildlife.
4 Cornwall
The south-western tip of the UK, Cornwall is a great
place for a holiday, with rolling green hills, sandy
beaches, quaint fishing villages, and unspoilt coastline
with great fishing. Adrenaline junkies will enjoy surfing,
sailing and canoeing.
Enjoy the great
outdoors

5 Channel Islands
On the five Channel Islands in the English Channel
(Jersey, Guernsey, Alderney, Herm and Sark) there’s a
mix of UK and French influences, warmer weather,
stunning scenery and intriguing history.
Norfolk BroadsFlat land with tidal shallow rivers and ‘broads’ (ponds
and lakes), unspoiled villages and lovely waterside pubs
make this a great area to hire a boat or go fishing,
walking and cycling. Norfolk is the UK’s best county
for birdwatching.
6 Cairngorms
Scotland’s Cairngorms National Park is home to Britain’s
biggest mountain range, is the perfect place to get
away from it all. You’ll find clear lochs and rivers, wild
forests and rugged moorland.
7 Scottish Islands
Off Scotland’s coasts lie 790 islands, of which only
about 100 are inhabited. Among the best known island
groups are Shetland, Orkney, the Outer Hebrides and
Inner Hebrides. You’ll find friendly people, wild scenery,
great birdlife, dramatic seas and skies.
8 The Cotswolds
The green and pleasant hills of the Cotswolds, in the
heart of England, are full of tiny winding lanes, quaint
villages and hamlets, and miles of meadow and
woodland, perfect for walking or cycling.
Peak District
At the southern end of the Pennines (the hills known as
‘the backbone of England’) is the Peak District, a great
place to go walking, rock climbing, horse riding and
mountain biking. If you use a wheelchair you can access
old railway trails and hire adapted vehicles locally.

The thrill of the game!
As the London 2012 Olympics showed, the UK is
sports-mad. Whether you want to watch live sport or
get involved yourself, the UK is the place to be.
Football
‘The beautiful game’ of football is one of the UK’s
most popular sports. It’s hard to beat the excitement
of going to a live match and cheering along with the
crowd. For a cheaper way to enjoy the game, why not
watch the match on television at your Students’ Union
or in your hall of residence with your friends?
Cricket
Typically British, cricket is a hugely popular sport both
to play and to watch, with tense national and
international matches every summer.
Cricket has been played in the UK since 1598, and
today it has a strong following across many UK
regions. While 20/20 matches last for an afternoon or
evening, international Test matches can last five days!
Rugby
The full contact sport of rugby is extremely
competitive, often very muddy, intense and
exciting to watch.
Every year the Six Nations Championship sees Wales,
Scotland, England and Ireland plus Italy and France
compete fiercely to win – and to avoid the wooden
spoon (coming last with no wins).
Horse-racing
From the excitement of point-to-points (horse-racingover fences for amateur riders) to the drama of major
races such as the Aintree Grand National (also over
fences), the Epsom Derby and Royal Ascot (where
horses race on the flat) going to a horse race is a day
out with a difference..

Adventure sports
If you’re interested in sports and you want to
explore the great UK outdoors, then why not try
something new and exciting?
The UK has plenty to offer – from adrenalineadventures to sports courses for beginners. Taking
part is a great way to make friends and keep fit.
Sea, surf and sail
With 7,723 miles (12,429 km) of coastline from the
islands of Scotland to the idyllic beaches of
Cornwall, and hundreds of lakes and lochs, the UK is
the ideal place for water sports.
Many coastal areas offer surfing l essons, from
half-day sessions to summer-long courses, and you
can find boogie- and wake-boarding schools too. Or
if you prefer boats, try white-water rafting at centres
around the UK, or sailing on the sea and inland on
rivers and lakes.
Mountain climbing
UK mountain climbing caters for all levels with lots of
options to choose from.
Wales’ Snowdonia region, England’s Lake District
and Northern Ireland’s Mourne Mountains all offer
climbers spectacular rock-faces.
Scotland is one of the UK’s most popular climbing
destinations – there’s Ben Nevis, the UK’s highest
peak, plenty of climbing schools and mapped
routes. With snow-capped ridges and spectacular
views, it’s a climbing hotspot.
Rambling and walking
The South West Coast Path (England’s longestfootpath) stretches for 630 miles (1,013 km).
It’s easy to follow, running from Somerset
along the coasts of Devon and Cornwall to
Dorset.
Whether you walk for a day or a week,
anywhere along this route will be a stunning
experience and you’ll get a bird’s eye view of
the coast. You’ll be on the Jurassic Coast, the
UNESCO World Heritage Site through Dorset
and East Devon.
Cycling and horse-riding
Combine transport with adventure by cycling or
horse-riding in the UK. There are plenty of marked
paths and bridleways, so it’s easy to explore
different regions. At many national parks and
protected areas, such as the South Downs and
New Forest, you can hire bicycles and go pony-
trekking.
Education UK, www.educationuk.org, has lots
of information about things to do while you
are in the UK.

Sleeping in a tent may not be everyone’s idea of
fun, but camping is the cheapest way to holiday in
the UK – and in our opinion, it’s the most fun!
Nothing quite beats sitting round a campfire
beneath the stars, zipping up in your sleeping
bag, and then waking up to glorious countryside
right outside your tent door.
It’s perfect for students on a tight budget – you
can find plenty of tent pitches costing just a few
pounds per night.
Before you and your friends begin your camping
adventure, make sure you have the correct
equipment. You’ll need essentials such as:
Waterproof tent
Sleeping bag
Food and water (most campsites offer
drinking water)
Torch
First aid kit
Map and compass (essential if you are going
to walk or hike – don’t rely on your phone)
Sun cream
Spare clothes and rainwear
In the countryside, some shops and pubs do not
accept payment by bank card, so take some cash
with you.
The best time of year to camp is from May to
September, when it is warmest and driest. Even
then it can be chilly at night, so it’s worth investing
in a sleeping bag that is suitable for cold climates,
and you might want to wear socks, a jumper and
a hat when you sleep.
At other times of year, it can be bitterly cold and
you may experience strong wind, rain, fog or
even snow and ice. Camping in such conditions is
best avoided.
Campsites vary in the facilities they offer; some
have showers and washing facilities, while others
are more basic.
Make sure you camp responsibly, in an area
where it’s allowed. Wherever you camp, be sure
to leave absolutely no rubbish behind and if you
are going alone, make sure you tell someone
where you are.
Some of the UK’s campsites are in spectacular
locations, for example near beaches or overlooking
wonderful landscapes. You could also combine a
walking or cycling holiday with camping, which lets
you discover different parts of the UK.
Glamping – upmarket camping
If you are looking for something a bit different,
‘glamping’ is fast becoming one of the UK’s most
popular ways to holiday. The idea takes all the
best bits of camping – beautiful settings and
being outdoors – and adds home comforts with a
touch of glamour.
Many sites have luxury tents or yurts, sometimes
with en-suite bathrooms or facilities such as
barbecues. Glamping is a great way to have a UK
camping adventure, and to celebrate a special
occasion with friends.

Step back into history
The UK is a true paradise for history-lovers. Across the country
you’ll discover thousands of awe-inspiring castles, beautiful
churches and ancient monuments. Many are free of charge to
visit and offer great discounts for students. Here are some of
our favourite places to visit.
1 Chatsworth House, Derbyshire
Elegant and historic, Chatsworth House is a stunning country
estate, set in the heart of the Peak District. The house is open
to the public and you can wander around the stately rooms,
painted gallery and family chapel. Chatsworth also has huge
grounds which feature bronze artworks and a 300-year-old
water cascade – the perfect place for an afternoon stroll.
2 Stonehenge, Wiltshire
Dating back to the Bronze Age, Stonehenge is one of the
world’s most significant prehistoric monuments – a circle of
giant monoliths (standing stones) and hundreds of historic
burial mounds. Scientists estimate that Stonehenge could date
back to 3000 BC. People come to celebrate ancient traditions
such as the summer and winter solstices.
3 Caernarfon Castle, Gwynedd
At the heart of north-west Wales stands the iconic structure of
Caernarfon Castle. Edward I ordered the castle built in 1283,
and today it is part of a World Heritage Site. You can walk
along the top of the walls and the twin-towered gatehouse,
see the imposing battlements and the polygonal towers. This
is a place where history comes alive.
4 Edinburgh Castle
Edinburgh’s beautiful castle looms over the Scottish capital.
Time your visit for the firing of the ‘One o’clock gun’ (cannon)
from the castle battlements. See the royal apartments and the
Great Hall’s ornate ceiling, as well as the Scottish Crown
Jewels, the Stone of Destiny and weapons down the ages.
5 Hampton Court Palace, Surrey
Hampton Court Palace was given to King Henry VIII by
Cardinal Wolsey in 1528, and it became the king’s favourite
palace. Visit the amazing Great Hall, the Tudor kitchens and
the Chapel Royal, and then head out into the wonderful
gardens – try not to get lost in the world-famous Maze!

Travelling around the UK is easy: all the regions have
very good transport services, with trains, coaches and
buses connecting cities, towns and vil lages. You can
often save money by buying tickets online a few days
before you travel, or you can just buy them when you
set off.
You can ask at the information desk at your nearest bus
or train station. While you’re there ask for a pocket map
of the routes and a timetable too. And of course you
can check out the information online! Take a
look at www.discovernorthernireland.com and
www.visitbritain.com.
Student discounts
There are student offers and discounts which you can
use to travel around the UK. If you’re between 16 and
25 (or older and in full-time education) the Young
Person’s railcard can save you a third off rail fares.
Many bus and coach companies offer a student
discount if you have an NUS Extra or ISIC card.
Your European adventure begins in the UK!
Connections to mainland Europe from the UK are very
straightforward with regional airports as well as major
international hubs such as London’s Heathrow and
Gatwick, Edinburgh, Manchester, Birmingham and
Belfast. There are always cheap flights on offer to
hundreds of destinations, sometimes for as little as
£20 one way.
If you’re travelling to France or Belgium you could goby Eurostar, the high-speed train direct from London to
the heart of Paris and Brussels. If you prefer a more
leisurely journey there are lots of ferry routes to
France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Spain, Ireland
and Scandinavia.
