This event is free and open to all however a ticket is required, only one ticket per person can be requested. LSE students and staff are able to collect one ticket per person from the New Academic Building SU shop, located on the Kingsway side of the building from 10am on Thursday 28 October. These tickets are available on a first come, first serve basis. Members of the public, LSE alumni, LSE students and LSE staff can request one ticket via the online ticket request form which will be live on the weblisting from around 6pm on Tuesday 28 October until at least 12noon on Wednesday 29 October. If at 12noon we have received more requests than there are tickets available, the line will be closed, and tickets will be allocated on a random basis to those requests received. If we have received fewer requests than tickets available, the ticket line will stay open until all tickets have been allocated. Please note, we cannot control exactly when the ticket line will upload, and publishing delays do sometimes occur. As the system now allows requests to be made over a long period of time, if when you visit this page the ticket line is not live, we would advise revisiting the page at a later time.
