Kalevankadun Approt will be celebrated on the 16th of September, 2026 in Seinäjoki!

​

Kalevankadun Approt is a student pub crawl where participants visit various stamp locations and collect stamps in their appro pass. Once you have collected enough stamps, you’ll receive a corresponding degree patch (overall patch). There are six degrees in total, and they must be completed in order. You can also complete several degrees during the same evening. The night culminates in an epic afterparty at OmaSp Stadion, featuring a live performer!

​

The checkpoint venues offer special food and drink offers for appro participants, making the crawl both incredibly fun and student-friendly.

​

News and updates about the Approt will be published on the Kalevankadun Approt Instagram account and website. On Facebook, you can find photos from previous events and get a feel for the

atmosphere!
