The ents crew is a group of students responsible for making almost every event that happens in the union take place - whether that's top ten artists like Eliza Doolittle, Freshers Bops for thousands of people, or mermaids theatrical productions. You'll see members of the crew at band events, comedies, ceilidhs, big screen sport and, of course, the twice-weekly bops - we're always behind the scenes!

 The Ents crew is made up of dedicated and enthusiastic volunteers - people often join Ents with no technical knowledge, and yet within a couple of weeks they could be setting up a Bop! with ease single-handedly or could be about to work with some of the biggest  artists in the UK. In recent years we have seen established acts such as The Pigeon Detectives, Snow Patrol, KT Tunstall and a whole host of DJs (Zane Lowe, Scott Mills, Reggie Yates) grace our stage, plus up-and-coming acts from the local and national music scene (Amplifico, Fight the Bear, Big Hand, Bohemond, Zebra Jam & Blues Brothers).

The members of the Ents Crew aren't elected, but we couldn't put together a website called 'It's what we do' without talking about their huge contribution to all of the Union's events.
