Student Night at The Dolphin Shopping Centre

Students across the county are encouraged to visit the Dolphin Centre on the evening of 8 October as the annual event returns to the town. With the draw of exclusive discounts, competitions and giveaways, thousands are expected to visit the shopping venue.

Many of the big high street brands, including H&M, New Look, Primark, River Island, Accessorize and plenty of others, will stay open after hours to welcome the students. From 6.30pm through to 9pm, students will be able to grab a bargain and enjoy a night of retail therapy.

There will be a unique chill-out zone for students to relax in once they’ve finished their shopping, or if they need a rest in-between shops. The chill-out zone, brand new for this year, comprises recycled and vintage furniture, in keeping with the centre’s sustainable ethos. Students will also be able to challenge each other with a selection of board games available.

John Grinnell, centre manager at the Dolphin Shopping Centre, commented, “We’re delighted to announce the return of our Student Night. It’s always a huge success with students across Dorset and is widely recognised as a staple in their calendar.

“We’re proud to hold an event that supports both students and retailers and it’s the perfect opportunity for us to raise awareness of the shops here at the Dolphin and showcase what Poole in general has to offer.”
