Join the Carnival!
HYY organises the Opening Carnival to open the academic year on at 2-6 PM on Monday 5 September at the City Centre Campus!
Come and learn about organisational activities, meet your Student Union and the University’s actors, add to your overall badge collection and take in the music, good atmosphere and diverse supplementary programme. The programme is organised in Kaisa House, Porthania, Think Corner and in the outdoor area of the City Centre Campus.
The main act will be the amazing ILON – the Carnival will culminate in their performance on Porthania’s outdoor stage!
