[Info] Cardiff University's international festival "Go Global"

As a prospective student I thought you would be interested in this annual event which highlights the range of cultures and backgrounds we have on campus.

Every year the student community at Cardiff University puts on a 10 day event called 'Go Global' with the aim of bringing together people from various backgrounds and cultural heritages.

The Students’ Union and the international student community host music from around the world, art workshops, a soccer tournament (last year won by Spain) and debates on international issues. Thousands of students from more than 20 different countries, and many more backgrounds, get involved.

Go Global culminates with Global Village. In addition to introducing visitors to food from more than 20 different countries, Global Village will also showcase some of the University’s diverse student performers, including Bollywood, Chinese dancing and singing, a masquerade, break dancing, an international fashion show, the Malaysian Festival of Diversity performance and many others.

You can see a video from 2009's Global Village below and find out more information on the Students' Union website:
