    Christmas is a fun time of year isn’t it? You get to celebrate with your friends and family. Enjoy good food and drink. And, as a student, you get time off to relax away from university. But, if you’re an international student staying in the UK, or you’re not going back home for Christmas, you can still celebrate with IconInc. We’re one big family here at IconInc, so if you’re staying in student accommodation over Christmas, celebrate with us. Here’s how to spend Christmas at IconInc and have an epic time. ## Cook Up A Festive Feast In The Kitchen That’s right, invite your friends for a traditional Christmas dinner and cook your favourite treats in the Mega Kitchen.  Just imagine the smell of turkey through the air and crispy stuffing on your plate next to delicious roast veg. Christmas crackers will be on the table and festive tunes will be playing on the radio. The student accommodation you’re living in is the perfect place to have Christmas dinner and you would be surrounded by people all celebrating at IconInc.

    ## Enjoy Some Down Time After a delicious dinner, relax in the games room and play a game of pool or the classic Christmas game of charades. Student holidays are for fun so take this time to enjoy Christmas day. Hopefully, if you’re an international student, being surrounded by other students will make you feel less homesick. ## Go Out For Dinner If there’s several people staying in student accommodation over Christmas, why not treat yourselves to a Christmas meal out? There are several places in the cities that will be doing traditional Christmas dinner or, if you’re an international student you could find food that you usually eat at home. It’ll almost be like being at home but instead you’ll be with the new friends you’ve made at IconInc. ## Watch Christmas Movies In The Cinema One of the best things about Christmas Day is the TV. There are so many good shows on, so many brilliant films and you can watch them all in IconInc’s cinema. Book out the big screen to watch a classic movie with your friends and really get into the festive spirit of the Christmas student holidays.

    ## Do A Secret Santa Before Christmas Day, find out who’s staying at IconInc over the student holidays. Put everyone’s name into a hat and each person picks a name. You have to buy the person you pick a present to give on Christmas Day, but they won’t know who it’s from. The present could be funny or it could be thoughtful. Whatever you decide to buy, it just means that you’ve got something to open on Christmas Day! What are you plans for Christmas? Will you be spending it at IconInc?
