Buy additional guest tickets

On top of the two free guest tickets each graduate is eligible for, we know many graduates are keen for their friends and wider family to attend graduation ceremonies. As The Bridgewater Hall has limited capacity, we are not able to offer additional guest tickets to everyone. Please note there is no guarantee we will be able to fulfil all requests for additional guest tickets. If there are any additional tickets available for your ceremony, these will be limited to 2 per person. 

Further information regarding additional guest ticket sales will be sent to both your student and personal emails towards the end of May. 

Due to the high number of registrations for graduation, it is not possible for students to change ceremonies.

The Bridgewater Hall have strict capacity limits, therefore all guests must have a ticket, including children and babies. When arranging guest travel and accommodation, please bear in mind that we can’t guarantee you will be able to buy a ticket for everyone you would like to invite. 

If you or your guests cannot attend your graduation in person, we are delighted to confirm all ceremonies will be streamed live online. They will also be available to download 48 hours after each event.

We will also be showing a ceremony live stream available to watch online or on campus in SODA G1.12.  

Cancellation and refunds 

Unfortunately, guest tickets are non-refundable except in extenuating circumstances.

Tickets are non-transferable and can only be collected by the graduate who bought them.

If you no longer require your tickets, please email us at [email protected].
