Foreword

Now it’s finally starting again – May Day or Wappu is here!

Whether this is your first, third, or whateverth Wappu, it’s undeniably one of the highlights of the year for students. Wappu is full of local traditions, including completing Wappupasses, crowning statues with student caps, and enjoying picnics – all of which are widely celebrated across Humak’s campus locations.

Wappu events range from donut-eating contests to pub crawls, and from playful sports activities to coverall parties. By exploring local offerings on Kide.app and checking out the list we’ve put together, you’re sure to find something fun for yourself and your friends! Traditionally, Wappu is a highly interdisciplinary time, and most events welcome everyone, regardless of their field of study or the color of their student overalls.Once again this year, HUMAKO has its own Wappupass – Humanistiwappu! You can read more about it below in the section Wappu 101.

Wappu 101

HUMAKO’s own Wappupass, Humanistiwappu, is here again!

For the second time, this event offers an opportunity to celebrate May Day or Wappu in a relaxed atmosphere without unnecessary stress.

You can complete Humanistiwappu wherever you are by participating in three events during the Wappu Celebrations from April 7th to May 1st. At least one of the events must be organized by HUMAKO, and the others can be organized by any other organization. HUMAKO’s events will be held during this time on campus locations as well as virtually.

In summary:

  1. Buy the Humanistiwappu of HUMAKO from Kide.app.
  2. Choose the Wappuevents you want to attend. They´re found in Kide.app.
  3. Participate in the events and collect enough stamps (3).
  4. Get your overall patch by showing your completed Humanistiwappu at Kaivarin Wappu in the HUMAKO tent on May 1st by 6:00 PM at the latest OR pick it up later from HUMAKO´s office in Helsinki. The patch will be mailed to you if you selected shipping on Kide.app when purchasing the Humanistiwappu.
  5. Continue celebrating Wappu with your friends in the form of a picnic for example!

NOTE! By purchasing HUMAKO’s Humanistiwappu, you gain the right to Wappupass discounted tickets only for HUMAKO’s events. For Opku+ events (organized by ASK, Helga, TUO, Laureamko, METKA, JAMKO, or O’Diako) you are entitled to a member-priced ticket if you´re a HUMAKO member. Otherwise buy a regular-priced ticket.
