The Events team supports:

  • Vice Chancellor-led events
  • Public lectures
  • Inaugural lectures
  • Royal visits
  • Building openings 
  • Awards ceremonies
  • High-level VIP visits to the University
  • Beds Talks research lecture series
  • Staff parties
  • Staff forums

You’re invited

Our corporate events are often open for all staff to attend, alongside students, key stakeholders, local businesses and members of the community. Be sure to stay informed via our various communication channels explored in this booklet to stay up to date with the latest event information.

Event advice

We are also happy to help and advise you on organising events, to maintain consistency in standard and approach to university events.

We are able to give advice on the following:

  • Lectures, seminars and workshops
  • Public engagement activities
  • Internal networking events
  • Publicising your event
  • Advice on services and suppliers to contact

We are also able to offer assistance and recommendations with regards to event publicity and can advise on specific tools such as Eventbrite and other marketing channels for events.

To get you started, our Corporate Events team has put together some helpful guides on running an event. Please click on the below links to download the documents.

  • How to plan and run an event at Uni of Beds
  • Online events guidance
  • How to set up an Eventbrite
  • How to organise a Conversation Café event on Microsoft Teams

Many staff across the university use Eventbrite for free event registration and this has recently changed to a subscription only platform.

The university has invested in an Eventbrite Pro Unlimited subscription. To gain access to the university’s Eventbrite subscription please email Events@beds.ac.uk and a link will be sent to you to create your profile so that you can continue to use this service.

Don’t forget, there are also many ways you can request internal advertising for your events, including:

  • Adding to our events calendar
  • Posting a noticeboard
  • Requesting a digital sign

Sponsorship 

Here at the University of Bedfordshire we know how important it is to keep giving back to the local community, and sponsorship is a key part of our role as a university.

We believe in working in partnership with individuals and organisations to develop our student experience and strengthen all community relationships.

Successful sponsorship is achieved when values and qualities are identified in the local community, businesses and sports clubs being sponsored, are reflective of our mission and objectives.
