International events at AUB

By becoming part of our International Community you’ll gain so much more than just a creative degree. You’ll gain friends, experiences and knowledge from across the world.

To make you feel as at home (away from home) as possible, we run events throughout the year bringing students together to feel supported, to make new friends and to learn about new cultures. These events include Lunar New Year, Norwuz, Holi and more! We ask our students what they want to celebrate on campus, and do our best to make it happen by working with you, and AUBSU.

Festivals we're celebrating this year include:
