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 Kuopio. The Torch Parade is one of the oldest and most respected traditions of the Student Union.
The parade starts at the Sotku (Sotilaskoti, Suokatu 42), where students are asked to arrive at the latest at 5.45 pm. Representatives of the local student associations will be carrying their own pennants.
The parade will depart at 6 pm, we stop to lay a wreath on the soldiers’ grave and, finally, we arrive at the town square. The chair of the Student Union, Emilia Honkanen, will give a speech at the town square, followed by the Finnish National Anthem.
After the Torch Parade we will go to drink some mulled wine to Apteekkari. Participants will get the mulled wine -tickets to Apteekkari from the starting point, Sotku (Suokatu 42), before the departure of the parade.
ISYY welcomes you to join us in creating an Independence Day with a student outlook, but please leave your student overalls home this time!
