Following the success of our first-ever graduation event in Shanghai in 2026, we’re delighted to return in 2027 to celebrate another year of outstanding student achievement. Bringing Manchester’s warm hospitality to our global community, we look forward to recognising the remarkable accomplishments of our Class of 2026.
Our Shanghai Graduation Celebration will take place on Wednesday, 10 March 2027 at the Shanghai Centre Theatre, followed by a reception at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel.
The event will give students the opportunity to enjoy their Graduation Celebration with their friends and family, in a setting more local to them. Graduates will be able to wear a graduation gown, have their name read out, cross the stage, and have an opportunity for photographs, in similar way to how our ceremonies take place in Manchester.
The celebration is for students who recently graduated from the University of Manchester, who opted to attend a celebration in a location more convenient for their own circumstances.
The celebration fee is 1350 RMB per student, which includes two guest tickets, hire of academic robes and the reception event.
Students who expressed an interest in the celebration have been contacted directly by email, by the University’s Graduation team, to confirm their place and to pay the fee via a secure payment link.
Further details about what to expect on the day will be added to this website soon, helping you prepare for this special occasion.
