Save the date: UoB Xtra is back this Summer Term
You told us you wanted more ways to connect, switch off and prepare for what’s next – whether that’s another year of study or taking your next career steps. That’s why we created UoB Xtra.
Running from 8 June 2026, UoB Xtra brings together a programme of free social, sport and careers events designed to help you enjoy university life while building skills for the future. From outdoor cinema nights and the Campus 3K to employability and skills sessions, it’s all about helping you get more from your time at UoB.
Summer Term: Save the dates
- Summer assessment period: 11 May – 6 June
- Teaching and UoB Xtra: 8 June – 26 June
Your Summer Term timetable is now live in the MyUoB app. Please note that attendance is expected during term time, including timetabled sessions; missing these will impact your attendance record.
What’s planned for UoB Xtra 2026?
So far, we can confirm that the popular outdoor cinema will be back, along with the Postgraduate Research Festival and the Campus 3K.
Teams from the Library, Careers Network and Sustainability are amongst some of those planning more fun activities and skills sessions, so we’ll be back in touch with full details as the programme comes together.
Until then, save the date and enjoy a taster from last year's UoB Xtra video.
