Pendle | Graduation celebrations


A photograph taken at graduation of  people enjoying themselves. Some people are dressed in graduation robes, others are dressed in their fancy clothes.

Our final-year students will graduate on Wednesday 15th July 2026, and our celebrations have been arranged to ensure you can all come and spend some time in the college with your family and friends.

Our celebrations will take place in Pendle Brew between 12.30pm-5pm. There will be free fizz, canapes, sweet treats and live music.

The Pendle College group photo will take place at 3pm on Lancaster Square (County Field - behind the back of the LICA building). All graduating students are asked to attend, and we will be displaying this photograph within the college foyer with the rest of our graduating years. You will need to be in your graduation robe for the photo, so please remember to allow enough time to get fitted with this robe before the photo or earlier in the day.

  • If you are in the 1.45pm ceremony - once your ceremony is over you can head straight from the Great Hall to County field (behind LICA building) for the college photo, and after this please come with your friends and family to Pendle to celebrate with us in the College.
  • If you are in the 4.30pm ceremony, come and celebrate with us from 12.30pm and then proceed to the College photo, before heading to your ceremony.

The College celebration events are not ticketed. We warmly welcome your family and friends to join in the festivities.

All students eligible to graduate this year should have received an email from the Graduation Team confirming when you will receive a link to register to attend your ceremony. If you have not received an email, please contact ceremonies@lancaster.ac.uk

We are very much looking forward to celebrating this special day with you.

From everyone in Pendle College, congratulations on your graduation and all the very best for the future! Best wishes Luke College Manager
