Drake Circus announces #drakefest

Student Night: Sept 26, 18.30-21.00, Drake Circus, Plymouth

Plymouth’s student community is in for the ultimate shopping experience next week when Drake Circus puts on its first ever student ‘savings festival’, offering bags of exclusive student friendly deals, discounts and treats.

#Drakefest will feature some outstanding offers from some of the leading West Country shopping centre’s 70+ top retail brands, including:

-   up to 25% off at YoSushi,

-   up to 20% off at Topshop & Topman, SkinnyDip, Foot Asylum, Monsoon Accessorise, River Island, Joules, Ann Summers, Boux Avenue, Clinton Cards, New Look, River Island, Schuh, Sole Trader, H&M, Krispy Kreme, Waterstones and Animal (with a free goody bag for first 30 people)

-   15% off at Cath Kidston (minimum spend £35)

-   10% off at Vodaphone and Superdry.

A festival-style bike filled with tempting treats from Krispy Creme doughnuts in the Atrium will add to the festival atmosphere.

And there will also be some great prizes on offer for the student who posts the best #FestivalSelfie on social media - and a ‘Selfie mirror’ to check your look before you post.

Live music from local artists playing in the Atrium and on the first floor, will add to the chilled out, festival vibe.

Drake Circus Centre Director, Greg Lumley said: “It will be a student shopping night to remember with a great festival vibe and our retailers slashing prices as hard as they can to benefit the city’s budget conscious students.

“We want Drake Circus to be the shopping centre students prefer, and this is our way of welcoming Freshers and returning students, offering them the chance to treat themselves to a few of life’s little luxuries from great brands without breaking the bank.

“Students will have the freedom to discover some great local talent, tasty food and enjoy some brilliant special offers, exclusively for them.”

The student shopping festival begins at 6:30pm and the doors will remain open until 9pm – giving ample time to grab a bargain in chilled out festival style.
