Are your friends joining you in Wonderland?

Tickets are selling fast - have your friends got their tickets? If not, why not?! Tell them to go online at imperialcollegeunion.org/summerball and get their tickets before 12:00 on Saturday . We wouldn't want them to miss out!

Essential items to bring

1: Your College ID - you will need this to redeem your ticket and get your wristband.
2: Your guest/s - if you've bought tickets for you and other people, you will all need to arrive at the same time to redeem your whole booking.
3: Proof of age - you and your guests will need photographic ID to prove that you're over 18. A valid driving licence or passport will be accepted as proof of age.

A few little things...

   Doors open to the Ball at 19:00. You need to enter through the College's main entrance on Exhibition Road. There you will have your College card swiped and you'll be given a wristband. You must wear your wristband at all times, otherwise the Queen of Hearts will have your head!
   Don't be late, late, late! Entry to the Ball closes at 00:00, so make sure you're in by then. Also, there's no re-entry for the Ball – once you're in, you're in!
   The Summer Ball is spread out all over campus , but we don’t want you missing out on anything! Look out for maps dotted around to find out where everything is, and to make sure you have the most Wonderland time.
   Wondering what to wear? There is no "dress code" per se, however in past years attendees have preferred to capitalise on the glamour of the event and come in black tie. Don't forget the Alice in Wonderland theme - this might inspire you to whack out the red shoes or bow tie!
   Our hashtag #icusummerball will be featuring on Twitter and Instagram all evening – don’t forget to join in the chat, send us some pictures of you in your finery (or costume!) and extend the party to the twittersphere!

Any questions?

We've compiled some Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) , which we hope answer any burning questions you might have. Have we missed anything out? Tweet any other questions to us at @icunion using our hashtag, #icusummerball.

We look forward to seeing you at the Ball!
