Unifiesta really felt like a festival

The weather gods can be fickle, which they showed during Unifiesta – the University of Antwerp’s staff party. Despite the rain, about 1,200 employees enjoyed watching musical colleagues on stage, savoured delicious food and drinks at the food trucks, and socialised with colleagues. A layer of mud on their shoes didn’t dampen the mood.

As always, Rector Herman Van Goethem let us hear his singing voice, but there was an extra special act during this edition. Seven of our deans shared the stage with Mission Kowalski from colleague Xenia Geysemans (Pastoral Care) to sing ‘Sweet Home Alabama’ by Lynyrd Skynyrd.
