The standard May Ball ticket covers the full nine hours of sumptious food and drink, as well as a diverse range of top quality music and entertainment, in the transformed, idyllic gardens of Pembroke College.
The Pembroke ticket is available for current members of the college.
This ticket is identical to the standard ticket but is only available to Pembroke students on (any level of) a University of Cambridge bursary or the Pembroke Hardship Fund.
The 2024 Pembroke May Ball hopes to be more sustainable than ever. Sustainability in the Ball will be addressed in key areas such as energy usage, material waste, transportation, food and drink and overall event emissions. This committee position aligns with a student-driven, university-wide drive to make all May Week events more environmentally conscious.
To commit ourselves to minimising the footprint of our event as much as possible, we have taken a Sustainability Pledge and are actively participating in an accreditation scheme set up by the sustainability consultancy Sustain-a-Ball to assess the sustainability of our event through an independent audit.
We are dedicated to making Pembroke May Ball 2024 accessible and welcoming to everyone! We are a committed member of the Cambridge SU Disabled Student’s Campaign’s Access-a-Ball scheme, and have a number of measures in place to make it a memorable night for all our guests.

This year, Pembroke May Ball has chosen to support the British Red Cross' emergency fund. You will have the option to opt-out of a £2 donation to the British Red Cross when booking your ticket(s) through our website.
The British Red Cross Emergencies Fund is dedicated to swiftly responding to global crises, providing immediate aid and support to affected communities. Contributions fuel their efforts, enabling them to save lives, alleviate suffering, and offer hope in the aftermath of disasters like earthquakes, floods, and conflicts. With support, they ensure timely deployment of teams and vital supplies, making a tangible difference in the lives of those facing adversity
