Social Events

Where the real work happens

Almost as important as the yearly conference, is the social events! This is where the connections in our community form – providing an opportunity for attendees to connect with each other, compare their experiences and share their knowledge on a personal level.

The Secret Garden Party

Join us for a SECRET Garden Party (replacing the Pint and Pasty night) for a selection of Cornish canapes* and a complimentary free drink.

There’s also entertainment thanks to An Agile Quiz Night, a selection of garden party games and a painstakingly curated Spotify playlist that we absolutely promise is not just the last four Taylor Swift albums on repeat…

Taking place on Campus in the gardens of the beautiful Tremough house and just a few minutes walk from the accommodation – there will be signage and even more friendly humans helping you find your way there on Wednesday evening.

*Your first drink, pasty (steak, vegetarian, vegan and gluten free available) and cream tea is on us! Followed by a paid bar after (contactless payments only). Due to the proximity to local housing we’ll be finishing at 2200 promptly.

The Beach party and BBQ

On the first night we transport everyone 10 minutes down the road to Gyllyngvase beach for a delicious BBQ, ice creams, beach games and live music. At the end of the evening we finish off by toasting marshmallows over an open fire as the sun goes down.

The Retrospective Boat PArty

On the final day, and after the closing Keynote, those lucky enough to have bagged themselves a boat party ticket (these always sell out) catch the shuttle bus from the campus down to the Prince of Wales Pier in Falmouth town centre. From the historic port on the mouth of the river Fal we set out on a on a sunset sail, either out into the bay or up the stunning estuary, again enjoying some delicious food and drinks as the sun sets.

After this, we hit the town for the final party.
