Balkan Society Membership

Balkan Society Membership 🌍✨

🆓 Membership is completely free! Some of our events will require a ticket, which you can purchase separately 🎟️

Become part of the Balkan Society at the University of Surrey 🎉, a welcoming community for students from the Balkans and anyone curious about the region's cultures, languages, food 🍽️, music 🎶 and traditions.

Whether you're from Bulgaria, Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, North Macedonia, Albania, Montenegro, Slovenia, Kosovo, Greece, Romania, Türkiye or somewhere else entirely, you'll find a place with us 🤝. You don't need any Balkan roots to join, just an interest in meeting new people and experiencing the region's culture 💫

As a member, you'll get:

• 🎊 Access to our socials and events, from traditional food nights 🥘 and cultural celebrations to film screenings 🎬, quizzes 🧠 and dance evenings 💃🕺
• 🎟️ Discounted or priority entry to ticketed events
• 🏡 The chance to celebrate national holidays and traditions with others who share them, so you feel at home while studying in the UK
• 👫 A friendly network of students across all courses and years, for friendship, support and advice about university life
• 🌟 Opportunities to get involved in organising events, sharing your own culture, and helping shape the society's future

Our goal is to bring the spirit of the Balkans to Surrey: warm hospitality ☕, good food 🍴, lively music 🎵 and lasting friendships ❤️. Join us and be part of a community that feels like family! 🫶

This membership will be valid between Saturday 1 August to Saturday 31 July
