The Color Campus, a new event on the Poitiers University campus combining sport, meeting people and socialising, has brought together more than 3,500 participants during its last three editions. For the past three years within the framework of the Welcome Month, the Student Hall and the SUAPS/AS have been organising a race in the heart of the campus where pep and good vibes reign. This 5km run energises the campus and allows students and non-students alike to discover it first-hand.

Start the day off on the right foot! Poitiers University offers you breakfast. During several days and at different places on the campus, whether you are in Poitiers, Châtellerault, Niort or Angoulême, you can benefit from a relaxed atmosphere over breakfast. It will also be an opportunity to talk to the staff of the Student Life Office and have your questions answered.

We’re also preparing some different surprises for you.

Make yourself comfortable in your car and enjoy! The Student Hall parking lot hosted 450 people for the first edition of the Drive-in. Dive into an American style drive-in movie experience for an open-air film screening. Scooters, bicycles and other vehicles are welcome and will enjoy front row positions.

Be part of the World Clean Up Day for a day. This event, which has been part of the Welcome Month programme for three years now, is an annual event and the largest community initiative ever known. It is an operation that unites 150 countries around the world for a common goal: to clean up the planet in one day. Start the waste collection race in the morning and then, in the afternoon, visit the stands and prevention activities available to you.

“The party is only beautiful if you stay beautiful.” The city of Poitiers is organising, for one evening, safety awareness stands focusing on partying and nightlife. The stands will be spread out across downtown Poitiers. On the programme: awareness and prevention. A quiz will be available and you can take part in a draw to try and win prizes (Futuroscope tickets, bike passes, shopping vouchers, etc.).

Since 2015, Poitiers University, in collaboration with the Crous, has organised a series of concerts on the Poitiers campus. Held in different places on the campus, you can attend concerts from different musical universes. Whether it’s hip-hop, metal, dub or electro, all musical genres mingle for a good time! If you have a Culture Card, you can benefit from a discount on admission.
