Welcome to Ceremonies

Your matriculation and congregation ceremonies are exciting celebrations to mark the milestones of your time at Durham. We're here to help you celebrate and ensure these events run as smoothly as possible.

We also coordinate University representation at Remembrance Service and other special Cathedral services as well as supporting the process for the nomination of honorary awards through the Senate Advisory Panel on Ceremonies and Honorary Degrees.
