offer on a Tueday night so it's not a particularly busy
night out.

Best
Behaviour @ Jumpin Jaks

The venue's main
student night which seems to be the busiest place on

The
Philharmonic

with a few medics and no real drink offers.
Liquid
& Jumpin Jaks - both venue's have tried
a Thursday student night but everyone will still be found
at 'bounce'!
Tiger
Tiger - we found this review on the club's Facebook
page: "Will Bonner (Cardiff University) wrote
- What has happened to this night? I hadn't been for a
few weeks but i went last night and it was pretty dead
and the music was awful all night. When i last went, it
was an awesome event with fun songs but seriously disappointed
right now. Also, ive never seen that hotdog/burger/popcorn
thing anywhere lol."
