Welcome to The Edge
The Edge is the University’s on-campus arts hub, managed by the SU. The Edge offers multiple performance, rehearsal and creative spaces where students can get together to explore their creative interests and expand their horizons.
There are plenty of ways to get involved, from joining student groups, attending shows and events, or signing up for classes and workshops.
The Edge is also home to the Activities Office where you can find SU teams including Arts, Sports, Societies, Volunteering, Community, Facilities & Transport and Finance.
The Edge is situated to the right of the Arrivals Square, next to the STV. Pop in and take a look!
