Espoo Day | tatskatytöt & speed friending
Hi, we’re tatskatytöt <3 We organize a wide range of events with a focus on meeting new people, and we’ll be coming to WeeGee to host a speed friending session. Plus, you can meet new people at EMMA all day long with the Getting to Know Each Other Trail!
In this fun and low-threshold event, people of different ages and backgrounds meet one another in short encounters. Come on your own, with a friend, or in a group. Everyone needs friends!
The Speed Friending section has a limited number of places. Registration for this part of the event opens two weeks before the event, and the link will be added to this page. If places are still available, it will also be possible to sign up on site.
The event is intended for adults (18+), with no upper age limit.
Getting to Know Each Other Trail
Art brings people together! The map highlights artworks where you’ll find questions and activities to do together. Bring a friend and complete the whole trail, or meet new people at the getting-to-know-you stations along the way! You are welcome to join the Getting to Know Each Other Trail at any time, with no registration required.
If you’re also open to meeting new people romantically, let others know by wearing a heart sticker available on site. <3
