Welcome to Big Open Party

Big Open Party?

We are a vibrant cultural collective of students at the University of Leeds who are from the UK and around the world. We aim to highlight the musical, artistic, and culinary skills of Leeds' people of colour and culture!  Our party is all about promoting and strengthening cultural diversity. In addition, we provide a safe judgemental-free space for POC (People Of Colour). All are welcome to learn, connect, celebrate different cultures and make new friends - the more the merrier! We can guarantee that there is a social for you where you will meet interesting amazing like-minded individuals like yourself. Our socials range from culturally inspired events, speed friending, study sessions, workshops, open mic, games night, pizza night and laser tag - we could go on and on, but join us and find out the rest for yourself!
