Official Edinburgh Napier January Welcome Back Week 2026
January Welcome Week for New and Returning Students
The official Edinburgh Napier Welcome Back Week 2026 events will kick off on Monday 19th January?
This will be a full week of events and activities to help all Edinburgh Napier University students meet new people, make friends, explore the city, try out new things and have a whole lot of fun along the way.
Expect the Welcome Back Fair, speed friending, puppy yoga, and more!
Beware of imitations - we do not have wristbands this year, so anyone selling wristbands is NOT official and has no link to the University.
Tickets are refundable until 48 hours before the event, except in the case of an event being cancelled or postponed.
This is the official week of Welcome Back events for Edinburgh Napier University students, organised by your union, Edinburgh Napier Students' Association (ENSA).
