The concert and sports complex 'Arena' hosted one of the main events of the academic year—the graduation ceremony of HSE University-St Petersburg. In 2026, 1782 bachelor's and master's students of HSE University-St Petersburg got their diplomas, and 303 of them received an honours diploma. The festival gathered almost 6000 guests: bachelor's and master's graduates, their families and friends, as well as professors and mentors.

Dozens of lectures and workshops by researchers from China, Brazil, Mexico, India, Japan, Serbia, Tunisia and other countries: the programme of the HSE St Petersburg International Partners' Week started with the Student Day. The venue for the global academic dialogue was the Rope Shop Educational Space.
