Students’ torchlight procession on Wed 6.12.2023

Join the tradition of the students’ torchlight procession on Finland’s 106th Independence Day on Wed 6 Dec!

The student unions of the Helsinki metropolitan area ArtSU, AYY, HYY, SHS, ASK, Helga, Laureamko, O’Diako and METKA and the Cadet and Officer Corps Association are once again organising the Students’ Independence Day Procession.
In addition to the procession, the event will feature choral singing and speeches from representatives of the student unions and the mayor of Helsinki.

The festivities will begin with the laying of wreaths at Hietaniemi Cemetery Hero’s Cross at 4pm, and the procession will start from the chapel of Hietaniemi Cemetery at approx. 5pm. The event will end at approximately 6.15pm.
The procession is filled with festive atmosphere and light in the spirit of the forward-looking student movement. Put on your student’s cap / teekkari cap / weather-appropriate cap and warm outerwear. We recommend that flagbearers and heralds wear dark clothing, but the dress code for everyone else is ’come as you are’!
