This Glasgow society is hosting a month long beer festival

GSMS has a new take on Oktoberfest


Glasgow Student Marketing Society are having their very own Oktoberfest themed month, and there’s so much beer involved!

The society are collaborating with some of the best and most famous beer companies in Scotland to bring you four weeks full of incredible events and networking opportunities.

And because we feel there’s no better match than beer and marketing we’ve decided to give you a full run down of the events:

West (27th of October):

The final event of our Oktoberfest will be another Marketing Tour, this time to WEST in Glasgow Green. The event will include a Q&A from the marketing team, a pint and a pretzel!

Events Co-ordinator and board member of GSMS Isabella Veglianti says "The Drygate Networking event is what I'm most excited for during Oktoberfest! It's a chance to mingle with professionals from the marketing industry, and as a fourth year student currently applying for graduate positions, this stands out as an invaluable opportunity."

It sounds like it'll be a night to remember!
