Events

Student events bring joy to the everyday life of exams and lectures. There are a lot of different events organized weekly around Tampere from the sport related events to excursions, alcohol and non alcohol events also. Most of the events are organized by student associations and clubs of the Tampere Universities and that means that many events are cross-disciplinary so all students in the University Community can participate in the events.

Fun Run on October 21st! 🤩

PIRATE ry is hosting the Fun Run event for the first time during Tamko and TREY’s wellbeing week. The aim of the event is to raise funds for Mieli ry while benefiting your own health by moving your body outdoors.

For every kilometer covered in the event, PIRATE will contribute a small amount to the donation fund. The route is a total of five kilometers, and at each kilometer mark, there will be a playful or refreshing checkpoint where you must briefly stop to record the distance covered. You don't have to complete the entire route; you can return to the starting point from any checkpoint.

The event will follow a pre-planned outdoor trail close by the TAMK area. The event will take place on Monday, October 21st, from 15-20 o’clock. You can start the route alone or with others anywhere between 15-19 o’clock. The start and the finish line are at the same location, in front of Solu at TAMK.

Although the event is called a “run,” you don’t have to run the route; you can walk, jog, roll, or bike as you prefer. Please dress appropriately for the weather and use reflectors and other necessary safety gear. The event is alcohol-free.

The event is also open for everyone and free of charge, but the number of participants is limited, so register on Kide.app!

Join in for some outdoor fun and help raise money for a good cause! 🫶🏻

All PIRATE's events are completely harassment-free. If you experience any form of harassment, pressure or inappropriate behavior, you can contact PIRATE’s harassment contact persons at (hairinta.joona@piratery.fi & hairinta.marianne@piratery.fi).
