London South Bank University Graduations 2025
Get your tickets to celebrate the class of 2025
We can’t wait to celebrate with all our students, their family, friends and supporters at our 2025 graduations.
Please ensure you choose the correct ceremony date and time, noting that there are multiple ceremonies per day.
These tickets are for guests only. To reserve your own graduation spot and ensure you cross the stage, please visit the London South Bank University website.
Guests are advised to arrive at least two hours before any professional photography bookings, and should arrive at the Royal Festival Hall no later than 45 minutes before the ceremony begins.
Graduands should arrive at the Royal Festival Hall up to two hours before your ceremony starts. This gives you enough time before the ceremony to sign in and collect your ticket, get your gown and cap, and have your booked professional photographs taken.
Guest ticket capacity differs by ceremony. Capacity may increase if more seat areas become available.
