The executive board of LYY has decided in their meeting on 29.8.2020 to cancel nightclub events in September due to COVID-19. The cancellation concerns the afterparty of Freshmen party (Fuksiaiset) as well as the Semester start (Varjoavajaiset) party, which were scheduled to take place in early September.
