About this event

  • 3 hours 30 minutes

After five amazing years, MA Virtual and Extended Realities at UWE Bristol is coming to a close. This is an (unofficial) wrap party for anyone and everyone who has a connection to the course, and would like to come together to share a drink, reminisce and celebrate.


Who is it for?

Former students, teaching team, industry partners, mentors, advisory board, examiners, critical friends and all of those who have supported us along the way.


Do I need to do/bring anything?

Nope! The Old Picture House is a lovely, relaxed space in Totterdown, with a (paid) bar and plenty of space to chat and catch up (or have a wee boogie if the mood takes us).


If you have any photos from your time with us we'd love to add them to a rolling slideshow on the night. Not for sharing wider we promise! Email or wetransfer to tellveritysomething@gmail.com please.


If you would like to be a bit more involved e.g. make a music playlist, run a game or some such just let Verity know tellveritysomething@gmail.com

Frequently asked questions

Is there parking nearby?

It's not great for parking so we recommend public transport/walking/taxis wherever possible. If you need to drive, there is a little Tesco Express carpark nearby (2mins) which should do the trick.

Can we bring friends/partners etc?

Sure thing, although as the venue is not huge we are asking that you keep it to +1 to make sure that there is space for those with a direct connection to the course.

What is the venue like? Is it accessible?

The Old Picture House is a former cinema with a relaxed, vintage vibe. This is a private hire and we will be the only guests. There are steps at the entrance to the premises. To share your access requirements please contact tellveritysomething@gmail.com
