The World Evening is a festive evening where students will prepare foods from a variety of cultures and regions, bringing the spirit of internationalism to us through cuisine. International entertainment will also be planned so that guests can enjoy traditional songs and dance. This evening aims to connect all members of the university, both students and staff, and other interested parties, with the world close to home.


The next edition of the world evening will take place on 2nd May 2024 (17.00 - 21.00) - block it in your calendar!

How much will UHasselt contribute for cooking?

We refund the purchases for a maximum of 200 euro per country/group. Please keep all original tickets and receipts (not handwritten and with mention of the purchased ingredients), otherwise we can’t pay you back.

After you submit the online form, you’ll receive the document ‘schuldvordering’: you can fill it in and bring it back, along with the invoices/receipts, to the student administration or on the event itself.

I have filled out the Google form for preparing food/as a volunteer/the world show. Should I register and pay for entrance fee?

No, you do not. If you already registered via the Google form and also paid an entrance fee per mistake, mail us for refund via international@uhasselt.be.
