Social Programme
City Reception
A welcoming reception hosted by the City of Jyväskylä is organized in the Agora building on Monday evening.
Excursion to Varjola Farm
On Wednesday we will have a half-day excursion to Varjola farm, which is located about 30 km from the city at 30 minutes' distance by bus. Participants can explore traditional finnish landscape and are offered a possibility to experience white-water rafting and a wire gliding across the rapids. The tour includes a dinner and a possibility for enjoying the traditional finnish smoke sauna. The sauna fits a group of about 20 people, so a pre-reservation is necessary. The reservation can be made at the conference registration desk.
Symposium Dinner
The conference banquet in a local restaurant, Savutuvan Apaja, is scheduled for Thursday, September 6th. The symposium participants will board a ship directly from the conference venue for a short cruise (approx. 1.5 hours) on Lake Päijänne to Savutuvan Apaja. Bus transportation back to the hotels will be arranged after the banquet.
Lab tour
The conference participants are invited join a tour of the JYFL accelerator laboratory on Friday September 7th. The laboratory performs research on accelerator based nuclear, material and applied physics at the highest international level.
