This event is to celebrate the diverse cultures within DMU - and raise lots of money for RAG!
All attendees get a takeout box on arrival which you can then fill up with cultural edible treats from Leicester’s best restaurants.
There'll be a live band and entertainment, and every penny of profit goes to DSU's 3 RAG charities.
