The Student Union of the University of Eastern Finland (ISYY) has the honor to invite all students to the Independence Day Torch Parade on 6.12.2022 in Joensuu. The Torch Parade is one of the oldest and most respected traditions of the Student Union.
The parade starts at the ISYY´s office, where students are asked to arrive at the latest at 3.45 pm. Before the Parade we are serving warm glögg at the Haltia meeting room starting at 3 pm. The parade will depart at 4 pm and walk to the memorial grounds through Joensuu downtown. The ceremony at the memorial grounds will start at 4.30 pm. Itä-Suomen yliopiston kuoro Joy (Joy-choir) will perform at the memorial. A Speech will be given by Laura Kangasoja, a Board Member of the Student Union of the University of Eastern Finland at the memorial grounds. We will also lay a wreath on the soldiers’ grave followed by the Finnish National Anthem.
As every year, everyone who wants to join the Torch Parade is welcome to do so.
