What is it? Serendipity is our Freshers' Fair and it is hosted by us, Undeb Bangor, your students' union. Serendipity is the perfect opportunity for you, our students, to meet our sports clubs, societies and volunteering projects and choose which ones you want to be a part of. We welcome a variety of university departments to our fair, including our Employability Services, Housing Office and Bangor Sport to name just a few. The services join us so you learn more about what else other than a top-notch education system, the University has to offer you in the year ahead. Of course, freshers' fairs are renowned for freebies! That's right, we have oodles of companies attending and they just want to give you free things that will help you through the next year and help you settle into your new settings.

Why Serendipity? Serendipity refers to the occurrence of fortunate and unexpected discoveries or pleasant surprises that happen by chance, often leading to delightful and serendipitous outcomes.
