The event instructions and schedule are available at http://itsenaisyyspaiva.ayy.fi/en/.

The schedule will be updated as soon as possible.

AYY traditionally provides the following services to its members:

Transport of flags:

Association flags must be delivered to the service point (Otakaari 11) by 4pm on Thursday, 3 Dec 2015 AND recorded in the transport list. Please make sure that you record your flag in the list, as we only bring the flags mentioned in the list. Flags are returned to the same place from where you can collect them by Wednesday, 9 Dec.

Flag carrying belts and sashes in the colours of the Finnish flag:

The Student Union can borrow a limited number of flag carrying belts and the blue and white sashes suitable for all flags. Reservations for the fastest ones to arkisto@ayy.fi. Equipment can be found next to the flags at the beginning of the procession.

During the procession, flag-bearers and heralds can leave their bags to the vehicle which drives to the Senate Square. When you leave your flag for the return transport, you can get your items back. Flag-bearers and heralds are not allowed to wear bags in the procession.

 

  1. Aava’s shadow Independence Day reception

Don’t worry, AYY’s Community Section Aava invites all AYY’s members to the traditional Shadow Independence Day Reception at Yläkertsi in KY Building on 6 Dec 2015! We provide a delicious three-course menu, incredible company and certainly more drinks than what is offered at the real Independence Day reception. In order to guarantee a genuine Independence Day atmosphere, you can follow the Independence Day reception on the screen while having dinner! So find your suit or cocktail dress and come to celebrate the 98-year-old Finland! The link to the web store will be published in Facebook event https://www.facebook.com/events/1658227507795174/ at 12noon on 23 Nov. Be fast, as this party is at least as popular as the original!

Ps. It is easy to come to the event directly from the torchlight procession of university students 😉

University students in the metropolitan area traditionally celebrate the Finnish Independence Day with a torchlight procession on 6 Dec.

The event instructions and schedule are available at http://itsenaisyyspaiva.ayy.fi/en/.

The schedule will be updated as soon as possible.

 

AYY traditionally provides the following services to its members:

 

Transport of flags:

Association flags must be delivered to the service point (Otakaari 11) by 4pm on Thursday, 3 Dec 2015 AND recorded in the transport list. Please make sure that you record your flag in the list, as we only bring the flags mentioned in the list. Flags are returned to the same place from where you can collect them by Wednesday, 9 Dec.

 

Flag carrying belts and sashes in the colours of the Finnish flag:

The Student Union can borrow a limited number of flag carrying belts and the blue and white sashes suitable for all flags. Reservations for the fastest ones to arkisto@ayy.fi. Equipment can be found next to the flags at the beginning of the procession.

 

During the procession, flag-bearers and heralds can leave their bags to the vehicle which drives to the Senate Square. When you leave your flag for the return transport, you can get your items back. Flag-bearers and heralds are not allowed to wear bags in the procession.

 

 

  1. Aava’s shadow Independence Day reception

Don’t worry, AYY’s Community Section Aava invites all AYY’s members to the traditional Shadow Independence Day Reception at Yläkertsi in KY Building on 6 Dec 2015! We provide a delicious three-course menu, incredible company and certainly more drinks than what is offered at the real Independence Day reception. In order to guarantee a genuine Independence Day atmosphere, you can follow the Independence Day reception on the screen while having dinner! So find your suit or cocktail dress and come to celebrate the 98-year-old Finland! The link to the web store will be published in Facebook event https://www.facebook.com/events/1658227507795174/ at 12noon on 23 Nov. Be fast, as this party is at least as popular as the original!
