If you love a bit of live music, you’re in for a treat. Southampton is home to fantastic live music venues, including the O2 Guildhall - a regular stop for nationwide tours - and independent venues that showcase up-and-coming bands.

Friendly support,
and zero judgement
Uni's an exciting time, but throughout your studies you might experience a few challenges, especially in an unfamiliar environment.
Whatever the challenge, big or small, our teams are here to help.
Our mental health support services were recognised in the 2025 National Student Survey, and the team are trained to offer practical support, self-help resources, and referrals to specialist services - with warmth, understanding, and absolutely no judgement.
