LAKESIDE Shopping Centre is holding its second student event.

Between 5pm and 10pm on Wednesday, April 30, students will be able to scoop up exclusive discounts from over 70 of intu Lakeside’s shops and restaurants, over 20 more than last October - when the first event was held.

There will also be plenty of free entertainment on offer including live DJ sets from KISS FM, racing simulators, dance mats, a photo booth and Essex Bootcamp fitness challenges.

Izzie Peskett, Marketing Manager at intu Lakeside, said: "Over 4,000 students came to our first Student Night last October so we know the demand is there for another one.

"Our retailers have really got behind this event by offering great discounts and extra entertainment within their stores so we’re looking forward to another exciting night."
