The Event

Kauppakadun Appro is Jyväskylä’s largest student event in which participating students have a chance to graduate by partying hard!

Every participant will receive a map and a diploma ('study record'). The diploma is for collecting stamps ('credits') by visiting and having a drink in different downtown bars and restaurants which are shown on the map. There’s a free entrance to all of the participating bars, and the drinks have a fixed, reduced price everywhere so there’s no need to bring drinks of your own.

This study tour will culminate at one of the following night clubs: Bra, Senssi, Giggling Marlin, London, or Pub Katse! Participants must select one of these venues when buying their tickets: these are the places where the ‘study records’ are evaluated and participants will receive a badge upon successful completion of their studies.

Participants must start at the time which is written in their ticket and preferably arrive at the plaza well before that. An official ID (passport, driver’s license etc. - not a student card!) is also required and will be checked upon starting. The age limit for the event is 18 years.

Bars and restaurants

All the venues prefer cash payment since card payment is slower and the event gathers thousands of participants. Stamps (‘credits’) for the diplomas can be asked from the bartenders or from the cloakroom staff in the official bars and restaurants.
