Bush Week 2025 Is Just Around the Corner! 🎶

We’re picking up Good Vibrations—and bringing five days of free food, fun, and festivities from 21–25 July!

Whether you’re an undergrad, postgrad, or HDR student, there’s something for everyone. Expect live music, puppy playdates, sushi-making, bonfires, art workshops, and more. It’s the perfect way to kick off Semester 2 with your mates.

New to ANU? You might be wondering—what is Bush Week?
Bush Week is a long-standing ANU tradition, dating back to the 1960s when it began as a cheeky week of student pranks. Today, it’s all about community, creativity, and campus spirit—run for students, by students.

Invite your friends to celebrate the first week of semester the ANU way!

18 July
Clubs Refresh Training & Social Mixer
Join us for Semester 2's Clubs Refresh Training. It will revisit the fundamentals of managing club finances and grants, while also providing practical guidance on running AGMs, conducting elections, and planning events like balls. We’ll also cover how to deliver a smooth handover to your 2026 executive team and explore the broader range of ANUSA services available to clubs beyond just funding.

There’ll be a dedicated Q&A session to answer your questions about Market Day, ULH, provisional grants, or anything else you need to make the most of Semester 2.

After training wraps up at 5pm, we’ll head to Badger & Co for some snacks and a relaxed social mixer — a great opportunity to connect with other club leaders across campus.

18 July
Postgraduate Welcome Evening
ANUSA welcomes postgraduate coursework and HDR students to their student union and university community with a night of canapes and refreshments, networking and mingling.
