FSS Events 

The FSS organises relaxed events and excursions for seafarers. 

Seafarers who are entitles to FSS services can participate in FSS events. Maritime students and retired seafarers are also welcome, as long as there is space available. 

See our upcoming events in the event calendar! 

Our events are held primarily in Finnish. However, you may still be able to participate in some events even if you do not speak Finnish, depending on the type of activity and the practical arrangements.

Recurring Events
