Gaming day

Is your favorite game Ticket to Ride or maybe chess? Perhaps you want to show your skills in Mario Kart, or has trying out DnD been for long on your bucket list? 

Smökki is filled with games of every kind, when AYY’s Community Section Aava organizes a game day open to everyone on Saturday 29 October from 12 to 8 pm! During the day, you can come and play your own favorites and try out new board and video games. There is also food available for a small fee! If you wish, you can also bring your own games (as well as friends). 

You can come and go freely, but some games require pre-registration due to limited capacity; registration for these will be closer to the event.

Grand Reveal and Singthrough of the new Red Songbook

How were those old classic sitsisongs sung? Or which new hits found their way to the Red Songbook?

This all will become clear when people of culture and enjoyers of sitsisongs gather to Servin Mökki on the 8th of November to the Grand Reveal and Singthrough of the new Red Songbook. The event starts with the walkthrough of the process of creating the new edition and followed with the grand reveal of the new book. After the reveal, the new edition of the Red Songbook will be tested by singing together every single song from the book. The doors to the event will be opened at 16:00 and the singthrough will start at around 18:00.
