Students, alumni celebrate end of school year at Light Up the Night

The McMaster community managed to Light Up the Night Thursday night, despite cool weather and heavy rain.

The third annual block party, organized by the Alumni Association, the McMaster Students Union and the Student Success Centre, celebrates the end of the term. This year’s event included rides, games, food, live music, a headphone disco and a lecture by comedian Sabrina.

The evening was capped off with a fireworks display.

Rain or shine, we still want the free food #lightupthenight
