Market Day

Time for the biggest event of O-Week: the UCLifex O-Week Market Day! With stalls from UC social, academic, cultural and sporting clubs, there’s no doubt that you will be able to find your people. If none of them interest you, there will be plenty of UC and local organisations who will be able to help you out!

If even that doesn’t interest you, perhaps free stuff will? UCLifex, our clubs and other local organisations will be offering freebies on the day. So why wouldn’t you want to come? If you can only attend one event of O-Week, this is one not to miss!

Still not sold? How about some live music?! We'll have a stage with live music playing all. event. long! Finishing off the day with Melbourne sensations Play Lunch at 1pm. The event will also be stacked with various other entertainment throughout the day, you'll just have to find them all...



Market Day has a range of stalls that line the concourse in the centre of campus. This event has a high volume of crowds with loud live music and other entertainment running throughout the whole event. If you would like to join us when it's quieter, we recommend coming after 1pm when the main act is on stage, leaving less people visiting stalls. There will be lots of free goodies from businesses, internal and external from the University, that are most certainly worthwhile grabbing. The Social Intensity Scale for this is 5/5 as you will be continuously interacting with various attendees and companies as well as having large crowds with loud music.

We are always flexible and willing to work with our students so we want to hear from you if there are any accessibility requirements that will make it easier to attend our event!
