On the Rocks Festival

On the Rocks Festival On The Rocks is St Andrews' student-run arts festival, showcasing art, fashion, theatre, photography

On The Rocks is an entirely student-run arts festival incorporating art, photography, film, theatre, dance, fashion, music and comedy. The first On The Rocks took place in April 2009, when a group of students decided that the separate annual film and theatre festivals should be combined to create one bigger, better event. The festival has grown over the years to become the largest student-run arts

festival in Scotland. The festival hosts over 40 events annually, the majority sell-out performances. The University of St Andrews Students’ Association supports over one hundred different student societies and groups, and On The Rocks is designed to allow each and every one of these groups to showcase their talent and to collaborate on bigger projects, helping to create a greater sense of community within the student body. Members from the St Andrews community outside of the University are also encouraged to apply to create as diverse a programme as possible. We aim to give the St Andrews community a diverse and creative programme every year!

October 14th? Who said that? Someone should fire that gal.

Anyways, we still have several positions with no applicants so we will be extending the deadline. If you missed the initial two week period, now's your chance, and if you don't want to apply yourself for any reason... no problem! Refer your friends, refer your enemies, refer your younger cousin's pet iguana (who knows what hidden talents they might possess), anyone at all who you think might be interested.

We can't pull this off without you all so please do consider sending in an application (as always, the link to the form can be found in our bio and explanations of the roles can be found in our pinned post) or just sharing our page around!
