A waiver is required and will be completed during registration.
Tickets are final sale. No refunds will be issued.

- Are enrolled in Spring term courses or are on a work term/co-op, and
- Have paid their Spring term fees.

Accessibility Note: This event has a live DJ, so expect it to get loud — verbal communication in busier areas of the boat may be tricky. The DJ set will also include strobe and flashing lights — please take note if you are sensitive to these. The boat may also have uneven surfaces, stairs, and limited space for mobility aids, so if you have mobility considerations, please reach out to us ahead of time. It’s also an outdoor event on open water, so dress for wind and cooler evening temperatures. For any accessibility needs, questions about transportation, or dietary requirements, contact us at events@wusa.ca.
