- Bars:
- There's a popular and lively bar on site that does good snack food during the day. St John's students really do live up to the work hard play hard Oxford stereotype so the social scene is strong.
|
- Functions:
- There is a major function, aka cheesy Oxford bop, every two weeks in the basement of The Beehive. Non-bopping Beehive inhabitants may find it wise to spend the evening elsewhere as noise levels may prove hard to ignore.
St John's termly guest nights, often themed, are a great opportunity to be cheaply wined and dined in imaginative costume.
The college JCR maintains a pretty good website to keep students up to date with termly events. JCR Website

- Major Social Events:
- St John's college balls, held in their beautiful and spacious gardens, are a spectacular Oxford affair. The 450th Annivesary Ball in 2005 was a lavish white-tie affair complete with string quartets and copious quantities of champagne.
|
- Clubs & Societies:
- Oxford University is in generally a very society oriented place, and St John's keeps with such tradition.
From 'Ballroom Dancing Soc' to 'Bridge Soc', college drama with 'The Mummers', 'Darts' or the theological debate forum of the 'Laud Society', club-joining students will find plenty of diversions.
