New theme is introduced every year to celebrate this day. Societies that are run under university management plan such days and themes are carefully selected keeping in mind social, cultural and religious factors.
Students have been seen actively participating in these theme-days and it has also been observed that students highly appreciate these days as a fun and lively activity.
Some of the most popular theme-days that are celebrated in Universities in Pakistan include:
1) Paindu Day
To endorse the culture of Punjab, institutes in Punjab province pick Pendu Day as theme to celebrate the Desiness of their culture. Students are encouraged to dress themselves in Punjabi way such as wearing Dhoti, Shalwar Kameez, Khussa, Pagri etc. Girls and Boys, both actively participate in this theme.

3) Daku Day
This is celebrated mere for fun and it ads versatility in list of themes. Students dress themselves as thieves and carry water-guns with them. The day ends with water-fights where both male and female shoot each other with water-guns.
4) Musical Day
This is yet another lively theme where students enjoy the beats of dhol and other instruments within their institutes. Musical shows are held where students as well as other popular singers perform to rock that theme.
5) Halloween Day
This is kind of western touch to themes, but since the world has become a global village, mostly students are found alright with such versatile themes. Students dress on that day as awkward as they can while looking like a nightmare.
6) Yo Day
Another day that wouldn't make sense to elders but younger generation would love to enjoy. You dress in a very veteran way, cheesy get ups are also welcomed. Retro dresses, goofy looks, veteran hairstyles, super cool spectacles, are a must to celebrate this day.
7) Balloons Day
This is another kind-of-sensible theme-day celebrated in some of universities in Pakistan. Students carry balloons while coming in the university.
8) DJ Night
Some universities are also seen arranging DJ nights within their campuses. Students, mostly from within that university play their beats and rest of the public spend that night jumping on those beats.
9) Bonfire Night
This is very common theme-night that is organized by colleges and universities in winter. Students get together, sing, do b.b.q., play games and spend half of that night having fun.
10) Sky Lateran Night
This is an extension to Bonfire-night where students additionally fly Sky Lateran. But in other seasons than winter, since b.b.q doesn't make sense, so students separately organize Sky Lateran Night.
