Social Events
Last Updated: September 2026PAGSA hosts many social events throughout the year! Our goal is to create inclusive and welcoming spaces that facilitate mixing and mingling of the students in the department. If you have any questions, concerns, or suggestions about social events, don't hesitate to reach out to us at pagsa@uvic.ca or message the Social Rep directly on Discord.
Welcome BBQ
At the start of September, we host a Welcome BBQ at Cadboro-Gyro park. Some of the things you can look forward to include:
- Free food - we try to accommodate all dietary restrictions!
- Casual games such as spikeball and frisbee
- A teams-based games tournament - the games are usually unconventional!
- Meeting new people in the department
Holiday Party
In December, we host our holiday party at UVic. Our usual itinerary consists of:
- Secret Santa gift exchange
- Pizza dinner
- Team trivia - we make the teams!
Spring BBQ
Before everyone heads out for conference season, we do another BBQ at Cadboro-Gyro Park. It's a great way to catch up with friends and make summer plans!
