ON-SITE OPEN DAYS
We’re excited to welcome you to the Fashion Retail Academy, so you can see for yourself what makes us the best place to study fashion and kickstart your career.
Our open days include a presentation from our Principal, Lee Lucas, or our Director of Academic Excellence, Tracy Pritchard, as well as talks about each of our courses.
There is an exhibition about our new campus, Electra House, and a virtual reality experience so that you can get a feel for the facilities there, including lecture theatres, the fashion design wing and library.
Tutors, alumni and current students will be available to answer your questions. You can also speak to members of our key support teams, including the Wellbeing team, the Careers & Progression team and Fees & Funding.
VIRTUAL OPEN DAYS
When we aren't able to hold our in-person events, we run our Virtual Open Days instead. They feature talks and presentations like our in-person open days, with individual, course-specific talks.
If you'd like a link to a recording of a previous virtual Open Day (Level 2 & 3 or Undergraduate & Level 4), please email events@fra.ac.uk.
Upcoming OPEN DAYS
You'll be able to register for our upcoming Open Days a few weeks before the event. These are Open Days for students applying for September 2025 onwards.
All Open Days taking place from September 2024 onwards will be hosted at our new campus, Electra House.
