As part of the summer programme, participants will have the opportunity to sign up for social activities. These optional social activities  will be a great opportunity to connect with other Arctic Summer Programme participants and experience the authentic Finnish Summer. After the lectures, you can get to know your friends, Oulu and the locals of the city.

The optional social activities will include:

- Oulu City Tour

- Picnic and play "mölkky", a traditional outdoor summer game

- One-day excursion to Rovaniemi, Hailuoto, or other local nature site 

- Berry picking

- Baking a Finnish traditional delicacy (e.g. mustikkapiirakka - blueberry pie)
