Family Formal Hall

Please be sure to specify the age of any children attending. This is needed for seating and for pricing.

Formal Hall is a served three-course meal that takes place two or three times each term. Dress code is smart, though black tie is not required, and academic gowns are not worn. Drinks are at 19.00, with dinner at 19.30. Formal Halls are open to all members of College, and members may invite up to three guests to attend with them.
All bookings for Formal Hall should be made via the Wolfson College Gateway. The booking list opens 14 days before each dinner.
Bookings, changes and cancellations cannot be made after 09.00 on the day that the booking list closes. For Friday dinners this is normally 09.00 on Tuesday. List closing dates are shown on the dinner details in the Gateway.
All dinners that are still booked when the booking list closes will be charged for at the full rate.
Please note:
• Wine is not included in the price of Formal Hall, and it is not permitted to bring your own. Wine may be purchased from the Kitchen by the bottle.
• There is no seating plan. Seating is as diners choose among the places available.
• Student tickets are non-transferrable. All guest bookings must be made under the name of their host, and will be charged at the full (non-subsidised) rate.
• There is no informal supper on the night of a Formal Hall.
