Hey party people!

Ready to unleash your inner nocturnal superstar and kick off the semester with a proper bang? Welcome to the Ultimate Semester Kickoff Party, MAD Edition!

Organised in collaboration with multiple UNIL and EPFL student associations, this event brings together over 1,000 students from a wide range of faculties for one massive kickoff night. 

This time, we’re not doing a club crawl… because honestly, one venue is enough when it’s MAD.

Expect a full-on night of bass, lights, and chaos-in-the-best-way: two dancefloor, one crowd, one mission: dance until your legs give up. Find your ESN committee inside MAD, come say hi, grab your stamp/bracelet (if relevant), and start the night with us!
