Reflecting on the epic two weeks that was DUSA OFest 2024, let's take a moment to reminisce on the incredible memories and experiences we’ve shared as a community. From the bustling on-campus activities to the late-night parties, this years OFest was nothing short of unforgettable.
Our many on-campus events including our Beats & Eats sessions, Market Days and Amazing Race Days, all turned out to be an absolute hit, captivating thousands of students across all four of our campuses. The atmosphere was nothing but energetic as students enjoyed free food, games, DJ's and a range of different types of inclusive and engaging activities.
We also held some huge night parties across the two week festival – including our Glow Party, Sunset Beats Party, Glitter Party and Mystery Bus Tours to name a few. You only need to look at the hundreds of pics on our Facebook Albums to see how much fun everyone had – the memories created will last a lifetime!
One of the most heartwarming aspects of OFest was witnessing the excitement and enthusiasm of our incoming students at our DUSA ODay. With over 100 new students joining us in the CBD, from the first icebreaker activity to the final farewell, it was a joy to watch everyone form special bonds and begin their journey with us.
OFest isn’t only about parties and games, it’s also the perfect opportunity for students to explore the myriad of opportunities available to them at Deakin and DUSA. From meeting some of our awesome clubs at our Clubs On The Green events, to meeting our Student Academic & Support Service (SASS) team at Market Day, there was something valuable for everyone to discover. If you couldn't make it to these events, you can find out more about all our DUSA clubs here, and more about our SASS team here.
And with that... now that another OFest is done and dusted, we look forward to the adventures and challenges that lie ahead in 2024. The memories we’ve made and the friendships we’ve forged will serve as the foundation for the year to come. So let’s carry the spirit of OFest with us, as we embark on this new chapter together.
Until next year, OFest! Thanks for the memories.
