Midweek Mingle

This incredibly popular weekly series of on-campus events began at the start of 2022 to help restore student, staff and community interaction on campus as restrictions from the pandemic eased.

The focus of event varied from supporting university priorities including harmony, diversity and sustainability, to entertainment with dancing and performances.

All featured free music, food and a relaxed atmosphere to help bring positive energy and a broader sense of community back to campus with opportunities to connect or reconnect with others.

Please note these are all previous events, held during 2022. For upcoming events check the JCU Events calendar.
