It’s time for Varsity 2022!
Varsity is a great university tradition: it’s time to get involved and show some King’s pride!
Support your favourite teams from the 17th to the 21st of March. You’ll be able to watch loads of sports matches such as football and rugby games, where King’s athletes will compete against University College London (UCL) in a friendly, but iconic rivalry.
We were not able to have spectators last year because of the pandemic, so make sure you come this year and show your King's pride!
The week is going to be filled with events, parties, and of course: sports! This is the perfect opportunity to get your mind off uni work by celebrating with your friends.

Varsity is also about discovering new sports and meeting new people! There is nothing better than supporting your university's team with great people and maybe you’ll develop a new interest in a particular sport!
Come together as fellow King’s students and enjoy the experience! Tickets will be released on Tuesday 1 March.
