King's Affair

King's Affair

King's Affair is the annual end-of-year party organised by the students of King's College, Cambridge. It is King's College's version of the May Week celebrations and June Events for which the university is famous. With a budget of up to £60,000, it usually sells out. The current Chair of the King's Affair Committee is second-year law student Andrew Smith.
