UCL History Society One of the most active and sociable societies here at UCL, we work closely with the History departme

We are a vibrant, inclusive and sociable society that provides students with opportunities to socialise, celebrate their achievements and explore career options and opportunities alongside their fellow historians. Throughout the academic year, we organise and subsidise a variety of events for our members, aiming to foster a sense of community and camaraderie in one of the country’s leading history departments. Get to know us, check out what we’ve got going on and by all means get involved!

We’re delighted to announce our upcoming supper club celebrating UCL’s rich history, created in collaboration with Food at UCL.

Guests will enjoy a three-course meal inspired by recipes uncovered in UCL’s archives, reimagined for a modern table. Each ticket also includes a complimentary drink.

Throughout the evening, we’ll share the stories behind the dishes and guide relaxed, thoughtful conversations that bring the archive to life.

Standard and Taster members can purchase tickets via the link in our bio.
