Oxford University students this morning made their way home from Magdalen College’s prestigious Commemoration Ball. 

Students in ball gowns and white tie dress suits walked and cycled through the streets of Oxford following a night of ‘revelry’ at the 565-year-old college. 

The £235 a ticket Narnia themed event was held last night in the grounds of Magdalen College. 

The event was described as a ‘night of woodland revelry’ in which students were invited to ‘don’ their ‘finest white tie’ outfits and ‘step through’ the wardrobe.

Today, students were seen trudging through Oxford’s historic streets on their way back from the event that ended at 5am this morning.
