- Bars:
- The college has a great little bar called The Beer Cellar with a warm and friendly atmosphere that is very welcoming for students and outsiders alike. The high proportion of Northern students might have something to do with this and although the ra-ra factor at Queens is relatively low, remember this is still Oxford! Many of the students stick to the college's own venues so it can get a bit monotonous by the end of a year. The JCR and Queens Hall provide the other entertainment venues.

- Functions:
- Live bands and a cabaret are pretty regular with plenty of home-grown talent on show, there are major Entz functions every fortnight with the end-of-term bop (read cheesy Ox Uni disco with cheap alcohol) a particularly debauched highlight.
|
- Major Social Events:
- The triennial Commemoration Balls and functions are big and fairly swanky occasions as you might expect. A bizarre traditonal social eventis the annual dinner to celebrate the survival of a student attacked by a boar in 1935 who defended himself with a weighty text by Aristotle!
|
- Clubs & Societies:
- Mainly sports oriented with teams for most imaginable academic pursuits. The college Drama Society also maintains a good reputation within the University and the Choir is one of the best in Oxford.
