CUTV is Cardiff Union’s awardwinning television station. We are in the Student Media Suite and are open to all students across the university.
Our members can get involved in a range of activities, ranging from filming and presenting, to script writing and directing.
They also can edit and produce videos. This year we have departments which include news, entertainment, sports, and livestreaming.
We have seen a huge increase in the demand for membership from students across a range of courses and year groups who wish to get involved.
Some of our upcoming and ongoing projects include the remaining episodes of our dating series, a yearlong documentary surrounding one of Cardiff’s football teams and a weekly news show.
For just £5 a year, students who join the society get access to training, industry-level equipment, social events and more!

Students don’t need any experience to join either.
We love the diversity of our society which is filled with a range of courses and year groups.
We are also affiliated with the National Student Television Association where we hope to win plenty of awards in April 2024 as we depart for Manchester. Being affiliated means members can also access mentoring, job updates and technical workshops.
There is no need for prior experience as we offer full training to all members. We meet every Sunday at 4 pm in the Student Media Suite (third floor of the Students’ Union). Each week we run a short workshop which teaches a technical skill, in addition to a general meeting where we discuss upcoming projects, new pitches and additional opportunities.
We also host socials every other Wednesday which range from a night out in YOLO to a tour of the BBC. We have our own Halloween social taking place on Wednesday 1st November. Come along to our pre-drinks before heading off to either your pre-booked night out in YOLO or into town with us (likely to be Live Lounge).
For those who wish to watch our content, they can do so on our YouTube channel, which recently reached over one thousand subscribers! We have also revived our TikTok account and will soon be posting daily news content, bringing students the latest news about the university, campus, and wider society.
We recommend everyone follows our Instagram to keep up to date with what is happening and once you have purchased a membership, you can gain exclusive access to our WhatsApp and Facebook groups.
