RRU Global Showcase 2025

We are delighted to announce the Global Showcase, one of the most celebrated events at Royal Roads University!

Previously known as the International Showcase, this year’s event reflects a renewed commitment to inclusivity by embracing a name that better represents all students—international, domestic, and Indigenous—who have always been part of this celebration of culture, heritage, and talent. Additionally, online students will have opportunities to participate, ensuring that everyone can share their stories and traditions, no matter where they are.

At RRU’s Annual Global Showcase, we celebrate the vibrant and diverse campus, community, and culture that define Royal Roads University as Canada’s university for changemakers.

This year, we honour our students by showcasing the legacies, achievements, and experiences of RRU’s diverse community—and beyond—through dance, music, fashion, and more.
