It’s official! On Wednesday 27th of September, National Katsu Curry Day is returning and it’s back with a bang, just in time students returning to university. Nourishing the nation with katsu curries since January 1997, this is their most iconic dish and it’s time to celebrate a day dedicated to katsu.
To celebrate this significant day, one lucky noodle union member will also have the chance to win unlimited katsu curries for a whole year*! Exclusively available to university students and apprentices signed up to the noodle union, 50 katsu curries will be up for grabs at every wagamama across the UK between 3pm and 5pm.
“With the start of university just around the corner, we want to make freshers one to remember, which is why we’re excited to be serving up katsu across the country to our noodle union members, with one winning wagamama for a whole year. We’re also pleased to announce the launch of Student Sundays, which will give students and apprentices more safe places to hang, and enjoy some exclusive food on us.”
Max Simons-Dukes, Senior Brand Manager at wagamama
Announcing his second term as the President of the wagamama noodle union, Niko Omilana has shared the news that National Katsu Curry Day is set to make a triumphant return. Katsu fans at wagamama’s noodle lab restaurant in Soho will experience a surprise visit from no other than President Niko himself and will also have a chance to bag a limited edition wagamama hoodie powered by PANGAIA; the brand’s latest collaboration.
In addition to National Katsu Curry Day, wagamama is also launching an exciting new initiative to its noodle union members. Introducing “Student Sundays”, a series of events that will run for three consecutive weeks, starting on the 17th of September. Between 2pm and 5pm on Student Sundays, noodle union members will receive exclusive access to a secret dish with the purchase of any main course, available at 25 wagamama restaurants across the UK.
wagamama noodle union President, Niko Omilana says: “To celebrate my re-election as President of the wagamama student noodle union, I’m excited to bring back the iconic National Katsu Curry Day, and this year, it’s going to be bigger and better than ever. I’m also pleased to be launching a secret new dish as part of Student Sundays for my fellow noodle union members.
