Rental Facilities
AYY's members can rent saunas, meeting rooms and venues for academic dinner parties at an affordable price.
Current Issues
Bookings for AYY's rental premises can now be made for the fall of 2022. Due to the increase in maintenance costs, the rental prices of rental premises, especially sauna premises, will change from August 8, 2022.
On 14 Mar, the Regional State Administrative Agency for Southern Finland has decided not to continue restrictions imposed due to COVID-19 in the Uusimaa region after 15 March. Although the regulation imposed by the Regional State Administrative Agency for Southern Finland on the safe use of premises is coming to an end in Uusimaa, section 58 c on the general hygiene requirements of the Communicable Diseases Act still applies throughout Finland. The section applies to all customer and public premises without separate official decisions and is valid until 30 June 2022.
Health safety in AYY’s rental facilities
Rental facilities can be booked and used without restrictions. However, the bookers must familiarise themselves with the general hygiene requirements required by section 58 c of the Communicable Diseases Act and take the requirements into account in their operations.
In order to improve health safety, organisers must comply with the following obligations:
- Clients and participants have the opportunity to wash or sanitise their hands
- Clients and participants are given instructions for maintaining an adequate social distance, cleaning their hands and for other measures to prevent the spread of infections
- Cleaning of premises and surfaces is intensified
- The presence of customers and participants is arranged as loosely as possible, taking into account the specific characteristics of the activity in question. If there are seats, the seats are placed sufficiently far apart.
Please always follow the instructions of the authorities (AVI, THL), Aalto University and AYY in matters related to the coronavirus when organizing events in AYY's rental facilities.
