Arab

ABOUT US

Marhaba!

The Arab Society at Royal Holloway is all about bringing Arabs and non-Arabs together to share and explore Arab culture, traditions, and history in a fun and welcoming environment.

Our society aims to represent the Arab culture and to offer its members the best support to enhance their understanding of Arab traditions and have fun at Rhul. We serve to celebrate all our similarities and differences, as well as create a network with fellow students, inclusive of all ethnicities, and create a safe space to learn, embrace, and share our cultures.

Our activities will include social events such as game nights, movie nights, cultural nights etc. Anyone interested in the Arab culture is welcome to attend the events and/or buy a membership – buying the membership will reduce the cost of all our yearly events!

We’ve got big plans, and we’d love for you to be a part of them and to join in!
