Improv Picnic

Sunday 13th July, 13:00 onwards, Preston Park, Brighton

July 13th @ 13:00 - 17:30

School’s nearly out, the sun might be out—so why not join us for AndAlso’s annual Improv Picnic (with no actual improv involved!)

Pack your suncream, bring a picnic, and come hang out for a relaxed afternoon in the park.

What to expect?
Warm drinks, frisbee, card games on the grass, improv and non-improv chats, sausage rolls (veggie and meaty), people from other classes, sun-chasers, shade-seekers, ball games, dogs eyeing your snacks, sandals, t-shirts, kids, grandparents, ice cream, spontaneous music, and that one person who forgot a picnic and went to the coffee shop instead. Basically—summer vibes, however you like them.

Open to current students, alumni, and even future ones! Feel free to bring partners, friends, kids, and dogs. Come and go as you please.

When & Where:
📍 Preston Park, Brighton (exact spot announced closer to the time — look for the big flag!)

🕐 From 1pm, Saturday 13th July

We’d love to see you there!
