Peterhouse May Ball promises to be one of the premier events of the 2024 Cambridge social calendar. As Cambridge's only white tie preferred ball, our May Ball offers a unique yet elegant experience.
We look forward to welcoming you to Cambridge's oldest college for a night to remember.
The dress code is white tie preferred. This means that black tie or national dress are also acceptable, though many prefer to come in white tie given the opportunity to!
The Ball runs until 5 AM, at which point a survivors photo is taken of all the guests who have made it until the end.
Last entry to the ball will be at 22:30, so make sure you’re not late!
To enter the ball you will need to present a valid form of photo identification verifying you are over 18 years of age. This can be a drivers licence, passport or proof of age card, photos of ID will not be accepted.
Current Peterhouse students and Alumni will be able to initially buy your ticket and 1 guest ticket. After the second release on January 31st you will be able to buy an additional 2 guest tickets. At general release you will be able to buy your ticket and 3 guest tickets.
Tickets may be transferred to other members of the University of Cambridge from the 19th February 2024 to the 17th May 2024. Before 19th April 2024, the administrative fee associated with this will be £50. After 19th April 2024 this will rise to £65.
We’ve worked hard to ensure there is a variety of food available at the ball, including vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options.
