Gatherland is perhaps one the most chilling places on campus. It is a versatile hub of arts, culture, friendship, and more.  Situated in Main Building after our recent relocation, the new spaces of Gatherland (MB240 & MB221) are now ready for you to drop-by, hang out, chill and relax; do some leisure reading or studying, vinyl music and mini cinema enjoyment; creative activities, chatting and gathering!

自2021年初進駐本部大樓二樓後,全新的Gatherland空間(MB240及MB221)已正式啟用。歡迎同學繼續在Gatherland聚頭,放鬆、叉電 、打書釘、翻雜誌、聽黑膠、 看影碟、傾project、閒聊!

Opening Hours:
Monday to Friday 09:00am to 6:15pm
Sat, Sun, Public Holidays and University Holidays Closed
