The Great Grad Ball 2019

Nottingham Trent Students' Union Entertainments Proudly Presents

The Great Nottingham Trent Grad Ball! 

We are very pleased to announce that the Nottingham Trent Grad Ball will return to the City Students Union on Tuesday 4th June!

This Summer you are cordially invited to travel back in time to the roaring Twenties to experience The Greatest Grad Ball! We'll be transforming your City Students Union into a bustling speakeasy - an Art Deco jazz club loaded with a vibrant selection of interactive entertainment, live music and glistening production. More details on those are soon to be revealed.

As the cat’s pyjamas of our Term 3 event guide, this glitzy ball will provide a great excuse to sling on your finest attire, before throwing shapes in our gold-cladded joint. As a one-off chance to bid a final farewell to your student journey, this swanky ball will be the bee’s knees. See you there for one swell of a night!

Entertainment Provided By...

Philip George 

Armed with such chart-dominating bangers as ‘Wish You Were Mine’ and ‘Alone No More’, Phillip George returns to his home city this June. With his pulsating brand of pop-tinged house, he promises to unleash a high-energy set at this year’s Grad Ball.

Zie Zie
ZieZie is known for his infusion of Afrobeat productions, dancehall melodies & the high energy of UK Rap. The Congolese pioneer has become known for such hits as ‘Fine Girl’ and ‘Sensei’, which were playlisted across such stations as BBC Radio 1, 1xtra and Capital Xtra.

The Stickmen
The Stickmen are a DJ & Drummer duo who combine a live element to their DJ Sets. They play parts of the songs live using a video drum kit as a sample pad. Their show is a high energy act that fuses DJing with expressive and interactive performance.

Jason Fox
Known for his big room student anthems and dynamic mixes, your host for the evening, DJ Jason Fox leads the resident line-up for this year's Grad Ball 2019
