I've not had this exact situation before, but I have been invited to similar pre-scheme events by firms. Typically these were pre-vacation scheme events, where expectations for the scheme were set and general guidance was provided by the training principal or several members from the graduate recruitment team. Personally, I'd try my best to attend, as these insight events can be very valuable. They give you a good sense of the firm's culture, introduce you to key people, and can help you feel more comfortable once the scheme starts. However, if you're genuinely unable to go, I wouldn't immediately assume it reflects poorly on you. I'd recommend dropping graduate recruitment a quick email to politely explain that you're unable to attend, just to keep them informed. That said, [USER=2672]@Jessica Booker[/USER] would probably be the best person to confirm whether missing the event could have any impact on how you're evaluated.
