Next week it is the University of Lancashire’s Freshers Week, followed by Lancaster University’s Fresher Week the week after.
At both universities, freshers will be busy getting to know their fellow students and their new homes.
A great way to combine those two things together is to go on a good old fashioned night out so we’ve scoured online reviews to find the best bars and clubs for freshers to try out.
Below we have featured some of the best rated venues from our two major student cities - Preston and Lancaster - as well as a few stand-out venues from Blackpool for those fancying a night away!
