Applications are now invited for the 2022 Cumberland Lodge Commonwealth and International Students Conference, taking place Monday 19 to Wednesday 21 December.
The Commonwealth and International Student Christmas Conference is our longest-standing tradition, bringing together students from around the world to celebrate Christmas in our wonderful, atmospheric home in Windsor Great Park.
Inspired by Charles Dickens' classic Christmas story, A Christmas Carol, this year the conference will explore how Christmas traditions have evolved historically and internationally, the socio-economic issues associated with Christmas celebrations today, and how we might address issues such as mass consumption to develop a more sustainable approach to Christmas in the future.

Delegates at the Commonwealth & International Student Christmas Conference held in December 2019
As well as talks and discussions involving a range of experts, the programme includes a screening of a classic film version of A Christmas Carol, a carol service at the Royal Chapel, and Christmas dinner with a visit from Father Christmas!
