Description

Welcome to Durham University Classics Society!

We are a society that appreciates and celebrates the classical world, holding different events throughout the year. Look forward to regular academic talks, sometimes followed by socials; some themed bar crawls, and our sell-out Saturnalia ball (held in the cathedral!)

Look out for our input on the academic side too! We have a wonderful freshers rep, and he will be here for advice from tackling essays and commentaries, to pesky translations. 

Many of our events are open to all. However, as a paying member you will have access to:

  • our mailing list
  • invitations to dinners with speakers, and therefore the opportunity to discuss their work further
  • priority to events such as our sell out Saturnalia Ball (this factors into our detailed priority system)
  • reduced ticket prices for events such as the Saturnalia Ball
