What’s happening?
We are gathering around to celebrate the highlight of the year, Pörssi ry’s 55rd annual ball on November 10th, 2023, in Pavilijonki.
The annual ball consists of a cocktail event, an evening party, an afterparty and a morning after breakfast, also known as Sillis. At the cocktail event, the invited guests present their greetings to the sitting board of Pörssi ry. The evening party mainly consists of speeches and greetings, singing, a three-course meal, and presentation of awards to the most commendable members of Pörssi ry. In the end of the evening party, we get to enjoy the ball atmosphere and indulge ourselves into dancing to a live band. Following the evening party, we can enjoy the afterparty in Pavilijonki to celebrate until the wee hours of the night. The next morning, we head out to the morning after breakfast, or Sillis, as it is familiarly known.
To whom?
Our Annual Ball is mostly intended for second-year and older students. First-year students are welcome to participate in the Annual Ball atmosphere in the Annual Ball weeks different events and in the Annual Ball staff, which is recruited about a month before the Annual Ball.
