Student events

Turner Sims is a popular venue for student society events.

We offer preferential rates for University of Southampton student hirers. Our team are happy to meet with you to discuss every aspect of your event, including costs.

We go above and beyond to support our students, offering professional expertise, guidance on booking forms, ticket prices, and recommending suppliers. University of Southampton students hire Turner Sims for gala variety evenings, singing competitions, dance, and poetry events, as well as music concerts.

Southampton University Student Union (SUSU) provide advice and dedicated staff to assist student societies in the planning of their events.

The students were buzzing at the end of the day, still full of questions and enthusiasm and excitement... all in all, I don’t think it could have gone better!
