Suicide Sunday immediately precedes May Week, which actually now occurs in June. May Week is a period of intensive party-going as all the college May Balls are held in this time. Suicide Sunday itself is usually occupied by attending numerous Garden parties held in the grounds of many colleges, which involve (for a ticket price of £10-£20) lots of food, alcohol and general inebriation. Tickets for garden parties are highly sought after and often first choice goes to members of the many college drinking societies[?].
