For sporting enthusiasts, there's the Millennium Stadium. This

Students' Union
As a student at RWCMD, you will benefit from being part of a
friendly and supportive community. Whilst the courses are extremely
demanding and you will be required to work long hours, we ensure
that there are plenty of opportunities for you to unwind and
socialise in a relaxed, informal environment.
Our hugely successful Students' Union plays a crucial role in
the life of the college. The SU is housed in offices within the
student common room and, together with the Head of Student
Services, provides a central point of information and advice for
students.
The SU also manages the college's bar, which is the main venue
for a lively entertainments programme including a weekly quiz,
regular live music nights and special events like the ever-popular
Bavarian Night! During Fresher's Week there are daily events, which
give new students plenty of opportunities to settle in and get to
know one another.
The Students' Union plays a big part in ensuring the happiness
and welfare of our students, offering information on anything from
clubs and societies to dyslexia support and counselling.
