Luuppi Youth Centre

At the youth centre, you can meet your friends in a safe and supervised environment and get to know other young people around the same age who visit the building. The activities are for the most part open, i.e. you can plan and implement activities at the youth centre together with youth workers.

At Luuppi Youth Activity Centre, you can find a studio space, a dance hall, a stage, console games, pool tables, table football and a ping pong table. The youth centre also features instructor-led small groups that are for the most part led by assistant instructors we have trained (young people participating in the youth centre’s activities) for the youngest users of the building. See the opening hours section for more detailed age group divisions.
