University of Tampere (UTA)

Ruma was for me the best nightclub, but it was because of the music (I really loved it). Th point of the city is that there are a lot of clubs and they are very differents, you can spend and enjoy one night in a techno disco and the following day in a salsa pub. You can't miss the Vappu, the party of the first of May in which students spend three days in the street having fun. You can even "be baptized" in the river of the town in a traditional act for the students of first year or exchange students. Visit Lapland, Russia and the Baltics and do the trip by boat to Stockholm with the SeaBattle.

Ruma and Doris are the best places in tampere if you like Rock and Pop. Ruma is cheaper but you always have to queue a lot, actually you always queue a lot for clubs in Tampere (and this sucks when you are at -15). There are other many clubs and cafees that are very nice like YoTalo, Cafe Europa is very nice, Arturi. If you dont't like maynstreaming places don't go to Cabaret, Onnella, Saha, Ylves, Emma... but you will go there at least once becuase of the student parties.

Diiva, nice but small club atmosphere Night Train, larger dance place with techno music Best parties organised by student organisation of BOOMI, check their website www.boomi.org! Lots of travel is being organised by them as well. Don't miss Hameenkatu Approbatur in December, largest student event in Finland!

I like rock&roll music, so I ought to recomend club as:Doris, Ruma or Camel. Otherwise, you also have got other nice clubs and pubs for dancing or taking a drink. Moreover, there are special acts during the year, as the "bapoo" party, in which all the citiziens take part on this party.

Cafe Europe - on the first floor there is a pub and on the second floor you can find a disco. The music can be better, but it is the most common place for international students. Wappu - at 1rst of May a huge whole city party - everyone has to get drunk ;) - special atmosphere!!

Best disco was night train, but I prefer the Students party. My favorite Pub was O'Connel and Cafè europa and a jazz Bar in front of the main bridge. The best place to eat if at the canteen makes Italian food, ESSBURGER, in front of the University main building
