At the end of your school career, as you pack up for the final time, the overwhelming feeling of elation is often accompanied by a sense of sadness. As each of you go your separate ways to University it suddenly dawns on you that at least for the time being old friends will no longer be just around the corner.

That's why you need to make sure that you have the ultimate send off, a celebration of a terrific time at school shared with friends and a night which will provide you with more than enough unforgettable memories to keep with you as you depart to various Universities across the UK.

Bringing together the best in live entertainment, a specially prepared gourmet dinner in lavish surroundings all within literally minutes walk from the centre of Edinburgh this will represent the pinnacle in black tie events all designed exclusively for you - the 2008 leavers.

A fully licensed bar will be in operation at Independence '08. Current licensing laws apply therefore those who fail to produce the appropriate identification will be refused service.
