Social programme during the language courses

Living the Campus | Bozen-Bolzano

text

Intensive language courses are the first step into your student life. To make the best out of it, unibz organises a series of social and cultural events to fill up your evenings and to encourage you to get to know the campus.

To ensure a great experience for all participants, make sure to get your free ticket as there are limited places available for most of the activities we offer. Registrations will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis, so don't miss out on the opportunity to join the activities. Get your ticket and be part of the fun!

Most of the activities take place outdoors and take advantage of the nature of South Tyrol, so in case of bad weather they may be reduced or cancelled. You will be informed each day if activities will be cancelled or changed in the programme below.

How to get your ticket

You need to book activities with limited admission (the ones with *). You can get a free ticket for them:

  • after the infosessions
  • at lunchtime in front of the UniMensa
  • at the Infopoint during the Student Support opening times (Tuesday: 14:00-16:00 and Thursday: 10:00-12:00)

If you cannot participate in an activity due to an unforeseen event or any other reason, please return your ticket so that someone else can take your place!

You can of course also get to the event venue on your own. Please make sure to show up early so that you can see the Student Ambassador and the group coming. For activities with admission, remember to bring the ticket to show at the entrance.

To explore the city and its surroundings conveniently and sustainably, we will use public transportation. We suggest buying the südtirolmobil-altoadigemobilità Pass. You can travel on the entire public transportation network in South Tyrol and on regional trains up to Trento for a whole year. unibz students who are under 26 years of age when requesting the pass, can buy the ticket for € 150.
