Accessibility Information – What can I expect from this event?
Captain will be waiting at the top of the Parade Gardens stairs at the advertised time and will begin leading students down the Gardens shortly after. There is no limit on participants for this event, so there may be large crowds and high levels of noise. You can choose to bring and consume food and drink or sit and enjoy the atmosphere. You can sit with other students or with captains (in green t-shirts) and will not be expected to speak to anyone if you do not wish to.
