In the second part of our calendar we've covered some essential events taking place between July and September to put in your diary. Graduate fairs, football, Clearing and carnivals: they're all covered. You can get even more monthly updates by looking at our online student calendar; the website address is below. Have a great summer!

July

1 - Smoking ban enforced in England: Smoking is banned from all public buildings today, including bars, restaurants and offices. And about time too!

7-8 - Wimbledon finals: Sit back and enjoy the strawberries while the pros sweat it out in the final weekend. Don't expect to see Tim Henman unless he's sat in the crowd eating strawberries too, but could it be Andy Murray's chance to shine?

13-15 - Latitude: Arcade Fire, The Magic Numbers and Damien Rice will be performing at this music festival in Suffolk, and tickets are still available at the time of going to press. Visit www.virtualfestivals.com to get the lowdown on other UK festivals.
