A great way to get a feel for student life here at Lincoln is by joining a campus tour led by one of our brilliant Student Ambassadors. Campus tours will take place every 15 minutes throughout the event, starting at 9am. The last tour will leave at 2.30pm. There’s no need to book, just pop along to the Campus Tours stand located near the Isaac Newton Building when you are ready.

Explore our accommodation and see where you could soon feel at home. Show flats are open from 9.15am–2.30pm and can be visited at any time during the event. Use the campus map and follow the signage to find them. Our Accommodation team will be available in each show flat to help. You can also speak to them in the Information Zone in the Minerva Building.
As 179 High Street is now fully booked, it will not be open for viewings throughout the whole event. However, a guided tour is being offered at 1.25pm following the Accommodation talk. The tour will leave from the Here to Help gazebo outside the Minerva and Alfred Tennyson buildings.
If you're in need of some food or a drink, we have plenty of venues open on campus. Towers Bar and The Swan will be offering 20% off food and drink, and all our University catering outlets offering 10% off. We will also have external caterers on the grass outside our Lincoln Arts Centre building (LAC), offering food and drinks to fuel you for your day with us.
Our waterfront campus sits in the centre of Lincoln, one of England’s great heritage cities. During the event, you’ll have time to explore the city and get a feel for student life. Lincoln has also been named the most affordable student city in the UK in the NatWest Student Living Index 2025.
