A university is to unveil its new £150m student village.
The University of Leicester will mark the opening of the new Freemen's development, located on Welford Road.
The institution said the work had seen derelict halls of residence and a car park regenerated.
Kerry Law, from the university, said: "The regeneration of a tired site into a landmark new neighbourhood is something the university and city can be very proud of."
The village includes a four-storey building named after the university's former vice-chancellor.
The Sir Bob Burgess Building comprises two large lecture theatres and flexible teaching spaces.
