Pasila Youth Centre

Introduction

Pasila Youth Centre is located 200 m from Shopping Centre Tripla. We organise meaningful, substance-free and varied activities for the youth centre’s visitors.

We offer a wide range of things to do. You can meet up with your friends in a safe and supervised environment and get to know other young people around the same age who visit the building. Our primary target group is 9–17-year-olds.

The building has a pool table, and you can also play ping pong, console games and board games. Additionally, we offer varied gaming and dance activities.

We update daily on our Instagram page pasilannuta

Would you like to have a say in things?

You can participate in decision-making at the youth centre. Young people can plan and implement activities and events at the youth centre with the youth workers. At youth centre meetings, participants plan joint activities and lay down and update the building’s rules.

We also try to encourage young people to become active influencers. Our youth workers would be happy to tell you about the young people’s influence system Youth Budget as well as other channels for influencing things. Ask us for more information!

You only need a membership card

In order to participate in the activities, you need a membership card. It is free of charge and does not require anything of you. Fill in a written application and return it to the youth centre. New digital membership card will be available spring 2024!

We are also happy to cooperate with parents. Guardians are welcome to come and familiarise themselves with the youth centre’s activities together with their children.

Organisations, associations and other groups and individuals can apply for a regular, weekly booking from the Youth Services’ facilities for activities lasting at least three months. Youth space facilities for the autumn-spring season must be applied for by the last working day of April.

It is possible to meet the Youth Workers in social media and game worlds, so feel free to just chat and play. You can also call or email us. We are at work.

We can also be spotted wearing “Youth Worker” jackets walking in the Pasila, Koskela and Arabia areas. Come and say hi when you see us.
