Graduate ticket

As a graduate, your ticket is provided free of charge. You will collect this ticket on the day of your ceremony when you check-in, a member of the check-in team will write your seat number on this ticket for you.

Please note, you must register for your graduation ceremony to be allocated a place.

Guest tickets

When you register to attend a graduation ceremony, you can request up to 2 free complimentary guest tickets, which will allow you to bring 2 guests into the theatre where your graduation ceremony takes place.

You will be able to check that you've requested guest tickets in your confirmation email. If you haven't received this and are unsure about how many you requested, please contact our graduation team at grad-acd@salford.ac.uk.

You will collect your guest tickets on your graduation day from the ticket desk once you have checked in and collected your robe.

Occasionally, we may have capacity to sell additional guest tickets in advance of the graduation ceremonies. If we are able to sell additional guest tickets, we will organise an online sale close to the ceremony dates and you will be informed via email. Please note however, the sale of additional tickets is never guaranteed. Please note, if an online sale takes place for your ceremony, this will be the only online sale. In the unfortunate case that you are not able to purchase any additional guest tickets in the online sale, we recommend checking for availability on the day of your ceremony.

In some instances, we may have a small number of additional guest tickets to sell on the day of your ceremony, however this is never guaranteed. If tickets are available, they will be sold on a first come, first served basis, priced at £12.50 each. You can enquire about availability at the Ticket Desk when collecting your complimentary tickets on the day of your ceremony.

Any guests who do not have a ticket to enter the theatre, can still watch the ceremony in our Live Stream Theatre, which is free of charge and located in the Peel Building on campus. Pre-booking is not required for the Live Stream Theatre. 

Tickets for children

Children are welcome at the ceremonies, but any child under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult.

Health and safety regulations determine that all participants and guests at the ceremonies are to be seated, so children two years of age and older must have their own seat and their own ticket. Children who are less than two years old may sit on an adult’s lap and will require a free ‘Child Under 2’ ticket, which you can add to the access requirements notes when you register to attend graduation. You can contact us to add a 'Child Under 2' ticket to your access requirements if you have already registered by emailing grad-acd@salford.ac.uk.

Graduation ceremonies are approximately 1 hour 30 minutes, which can sometimes prove to be too long for younger children who may become restless. For the comfort of other guests, guardians may be asked to take any child that becomes agitated or distressed out of the theatre and into the reception area.
