The end of year is fast approaching, and we will be launching another show of incredible new talent with fresh approaches and innovative work.

The Wolverhampton University Degree Show 2026 launches on Friday 5th June 5.30pm-8.30pm.  We look forward to welcoming all our students, colleagues, families, and friends for an evening of celebration in viewing our end of year Degree Show. You will have the opportunity to see the work of our talented graduates in Animation, Game Design, Film Production, Fine Art, Graphics, Illustration, Journalism, and Photography.

The world is uncertain and this is when Artists and Designers go to work, (and do their best work) noticing, revealing and understanding the world around us. Their creativity is transformational, inspirational and thought-provoking.

This show embodies the best of us. Our values of integrity, honesty and making a difference are spoken through inclusive storytelling, sustainable solutions, creative well-being and radical social mobility. This skill, discipline and creativity brings the George Wallis building alive across the 2 weeks in June.

Wolverhampton and the Black Country have a heritage and legacy of innovation inclusivity and community. In these times our pride in our creative community remains a core value in everything we do. Being the best we can and believing doing the right thing is always the right thing.

The Creative Industries continues to be the UK’s economic powerhouse. It is vibrant, agile and Innovative growing the UK economy and transforming lives. We proudly present the students work that will shape the Industries future direction of travel and impact.

All welcome. The degree show is free to attend. Book your place here for the Screen Awards.
