Rêve d'Été

The Ball

The theme for the Pembroke Ball 2027 is ‘Rêve d'Été: A Dream of Summer’. We want to focus on the shared experience of current students and alumni alike, so our theme will focus on tangible, positive memories of Pembroke and Oxford in the summertime. Going further back, we also want to evoke a hazy nostalgia of summer picnics, garden parties, and moments of carefree joy. The college will be transformed, encouraging a sense of wonder and exploration where old memories are rediscovered and new ones are formed. This will be achieved through references to Pembroke of the past, combined with an ambience and activities that encourage delight and wonder associated with summertime.
