The Queen’s University Belfast Open is back, and we are so excited to bring competitive debating back to the miderific. A goated CA, Equity and Tab lineup will make the QUB IV bounce back with a bang. Join the best (and only lol) debating society in Northern Ireland for a weekend of yap, fun, and competition. Take this opportunity to escape the evil of Dublin debate (don’t look too closely at the names below), and do something different. In short, our SU bar is cheap, our vibes are impeccable, and it's an absolute no brainer.
If you have any questions, please feel free to DM me/ the society on FB, Insta, or email - [email protected]
