Head down to Zebrano in Soho for their Twisted Tuesday event every week, which offers free entry for students. They have happy hour prices all night, including £5.50 cocktails and £3.50 beer and wine. Enjoy these alongside banging DJ sets playing everything from pop to afrobeats.
This great East London student club is the perfect night out option. With tickets to weekly club night Drop The Bass selling for just a fiver, it's a cheap London event for students looking to save some pennies.
Ballie Ballerson are welcoming students of London into their iconic Shoreditch venue for as little as a fiver. Join them for hours of rolling around the ball pools and sipping on creative cocktails and steaming pizza slices.
After a London student club night that's jam-packed with cheese? Popworld Watling Street is just the spot for you. The Central London club is a haven for retro disco hits, fuelled by signature cocktails, classic shots and party booth packages if you're really celebrating.
Situated right by Leicester Square, Bar Rumba offers a fun night full of dancing and good music. Each night of the week is different with a theme and some mind-blowing promotions and happy hours on drinks. It's the perfect place for a big student night out with a group.
Step through the cigar shop and into a playground of exposed brickwork and timber finishes; you've arrived at Chelsea's home of contemporary Cuban partying. Known for their rum cocktails and the largest open air terrace in SW10, Embargo Republica flows with Latin rhythm thanks to its eclectic mix of live acts and DJ sets.
Happy Hour ! 10 pm to Midnight - Thursday, Friday & Saturdays -50% off - Free Entry !
Something of a hot-bed for Roehampton revellers, this Moroccan-inspired spot attracts hordes of students looking to party long into the night. With a killer soundsystem, late licence, unique cocktails and handy discounts for those on the guestlist, Fez Club ticks all the right boxes for a student-friendly night in London.
This authentic Latin nightclub brings the culture of South America to Central London, boasting venues in Soho and Embankment. With cheap drinks, good food and dance lessons, there are so many things to try at Salsa! There's a different event every night, even Sundays, so you can choose your favourite.
From brunch to late nights, Supa Dupa Fly has something for everyone. Not only are you going to get some of the best events held at amazing locations across the city (and the best hip hop and R&B soundtrack as well), but you won't even break the bank by doing it.
Having been around since 2003, The Roxy is a cool nightclub and bar in the heart of the West End. With a different event every night of the week, it is the perfect student venue. Come round on the weekends where the bustling venue is open until the early hours of the morning with cocktails and tunes.
You can nab some pretty great drinks deals here as well. Their happy hour runs from 5 until 8.30pm on weekdays and up to 10.30pm on Saturdays, promising two cocktails for £11, £4.80 pints or a double spirit and mixer for just £5.
There's nothing quite like letting loose on the dancefloor at Infernos. An infamous hub for Clapham debauchery, those cheesy power ballads ring out all night long at this student haven. Flex those vocal chords and belt out the words to your guilty pleasure favourites, and don't forget to take advantage of the cheap drinks deals.
