Join us for one of the highlights of the St Cross social calendar as we transform College for an evening inspired by the warmth and elegance of the Mediterranean.

Expect a relaxed yet vibrant atmosphere, with soft lights, summer flavours, and a touch of Riviera glamour. Think golden evenings, citrus notes, and gathering with friends under the (hopefully) starry Oxford sky. A celebration of la dolce vita in the heart of College.

Tickets are limited and always in high demand — be sure to secure yours quickly.
