SPONSORS CAN HAVE A BALL WHILST SUPPORTING THE KATE KENNEDY CLUB
The Kate Kennedy Club exists to preserve the Kate Kennedy Annual Procession and has three aims: 1. Maintaining the traditions of the University and town of St. Andrews; 2. Upholding and improving Town and Gown relations; and 3. Raising money for local charities.

The Kate Kennedy Procession is the Club's main event and the one around which the Club was founded. Each year both Town and Gown assemble to form a crowd of some 15,000 people on the streets of St. Andrews to celebrate the lives and contributions of some of the great men and women of the town and university. The procession has a long history but its organisation by the Kate Kennedy Club has ensured that it is a great tradition in the life of the town, a special day for town and gown alike.

The Kate Kennedy Club Charity May Ball is the biggest ball in Scotland and is the main social event of the University calendar. The ball claims to offer exceptionally good value compared to many balls both within and outside St. Andrews, through sponsorship and careful spending. The ball is held in luxury marquees in the beautiful surroundings of Craigtoun Park, more than 2000 undergraduates enjoying free drinks, food, fairground attractions and live bands. Those who want a little more can enjoy the unique Gold and Platinum experiences which boast helicopter rides over St Andrews, limousines to the park and an exclusive champagne reception.

The Charity Opening Ball is the first social event of the academic year, and aims to bring the members of the University together. Hosted on Lower College Lawn in luxury marquees, guests are received with a champagne reception and piper, making this a splendid way to begin a university career.

The Kate Kennedy Club Jazz Night, held in November, is one of the Club's most popular events, entertaining over 250 people with bands playing jazz and blues in a sophisticated ballroom setting. Some of the top professional jazz bands play to a packed dance floor.
