The English Society is a place for all bookworms and storytellers or anyone who has an interest in the subject! We host famous events like our Poetry & Pints nights which are a must for any English student, as well as hangouts, pub quizzes, pub crawls, free book collections and swaps, bookmark making, and our annual charity formal among many others. We also run the Gorgon magazine to share the literary talent of the Queens community.
We work in close contact with Belfast arts and culture events and often collab with other societies. We’re a hub for any avid readers or writers of all stripes, a platform to share your own creative work and a space for anybody with similar interests to just make friends!
