🧙‍♀️🎃 THATCHERS HORROR CAULDRON IS HERE AT BELOWONE! 🩸🍏

All week long, we’re putting your luck to the test! 👀💀

Here’s how it works:

🍻 1. BUY A PINT of Thatchers Blood Orange or Haze.

🧙‍♀️ 2. PULL A SCROLL from our not-so-magical, definitely-not-a-real-cauldron Horror Cauldron.

🎁 3. DISCOVER YOUR FATE! Your scroll could reveal:
🏆 A PRIZE — win some Thatchers merch!
🍻 A FREEBIE — bag yourself something for free!
💀 A BIG FAT NOTHING — better luck next time!

Every eligible pint gives you a chance to pull a scroll, but what you get is down to fate! 🔮

📅 RUNNING ALL WEEK FOR HALLOWEEN
📍 Find the Horror Cauldron at BelowOne!

The question is… will you be trick-or-treating, or just getting tricked? 😈🩸

🚨 RED BULL? MORE LIKE RED FLAG. 🚨

Imagine confirming an event, letting us advertise it, getting students hyped… and then deciding you’ll turn up from 10am instead. 💀

Absolutely world-class planning. Truly gives you wings. Just apparently not the ability to read a calendar. 🪽

Anyway, whilst Red Bull have spectacularly fumbled the bag, we’ve got a plan. And we’re making sure you’re not the ones missing out.

🍺 WHAT’S HAPPENING AT THATCHERS TAKEOVER NIGHT?

🎤 Karaoke – embarrass yourself for free. You’re welcome.

🏓 B**r Pong – settle the score. Blame your teammates.

🥃 Drinking Shuffle – because apparently standing still is too easy.

🔥 Ring of Fire – questionable decisions, excellent entertainment.

🍺 HOLD A STEIN. WIN 2 STEINS. – yes, TWO. Show us what you’ve got.

💸 DRINK DEALS ALL NIGHT:
🍻 All Thatchers – £3.65
🥃 Doubles – £3
💣 J-bombs – 2 for £5
🍹 Thatchers Cocktail Steins
🎨 DIY Steins
🍑 Two H***h for £7

Thatchers Takeover Night is still happening, and we’re not letting someone else’s planning disaster ruin it.

Same night. Same chaos. Just with an even better reason to turn up.

🚨 Diversion is back… but not as you know it.

First things first: Diversion is the event. Not the name of the room. 😂

Based on your feedback, we’re switching things up. Instead of the same format every Wednesday, we’ve got a monthly plan of action — with Diversion taking on different ideas, formats and experiences throughout the month.

So, if you’ve been asking for something different… we’ve listened.

👀 Check out this month’s Diversion lineup, pick your Wednesdays and get involved. Bring your mates, bring the energy and let’s make Wednesdays worth showing up for.

Diversion Wednesdays. Different every week. Don’t miss what’s next. 🔥

05/10/2026

This week at BelowOne 👀🍻

🍸 Tuesday: Cocktail Night — your midweek plans just sorted.

🎉 Wednesday: Socials + a new take on Diversion Wednesdays. More reasons to get involved, meet people and make a night of it.

🍺 Thursday: Oktoberfest Games — steins, games, chaos. You know the drill.

Basically… staying in this week would be a bit embarrassing. 👀

28/09/2026

This week at BelowOne! And it’s one that’s mandatory to attend…because it’s the time of year where the STEINS ARE BACK 🍻

POV: Welcome Week was just the warm-up 👀

The photos. The chaos. The random nights that somehow became the night. 🫶

And now? There’s officially no excuse to be boring.

Uni is what YOU make of it — so get out, say yes, find your people, try something random and make some memories you’ll still be talking about in December.

Because whilst you’re sat in your room thinking “I should’ve gone”… someone else is having the night you’ll wish you were at. 👀

Nobody came to uni for boring. So don’t make it boring.

This week. We’re outside. 🫡
