On the campus tours you will be taken to places where you usually don't end up and hear the stories that you usually won't hear.
We enter a couple of laboratories, have a peek into not-at-all-dusty basements and climb up to look down on the campus. If you have taken this tour during the Campus Party before, a lot of it is familiar to you, because the campus is still the same :)
Each tour lasts about 70–90 minutes and involves walking and stairs. Tours can be done also in English if necessary.
- At 12 PM Campus Tour (starts from main lobby)
- At 2 PM Campus Tour (starts from main lobby)
- At 4 PM Campus Tour (starts from main lobby)
From 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM, there will be a Pop-Up Library in front of the main library where you can register as a reader, ask for book recommendations, and participate in an emoji game.

Drink-yoga is a fun and accessible warm-up for the grand Afterparty of the Campus Party! Following the instructor’s lead, we will together take on simple yoga poses while enjoying a refreshing drink – no prior yoga experience or special workout clothes is required.

Deep within TalTech’s hidden corners, in the dusty walls of the former professors’ bar, the Wave Lab comes alive – a hideout of electronic music only for those who know where to knock. It is a space where logic loses gravity and all frequencies intertwine into one – a rhythm that resonates straight through the core of the body.
For this round of lab experiments, two frequency engineers have been invited:
- papito karlito – his sets carry the warmth of analog sounds, the precision of micro-details, and bass that asks no permission.
- DJames – a nocturnal wizard whose sonic storytelling guides you through soundscapes where time dissolves and the body moves on its own.
Seek the shadowy door. Listen to the bass. And if you find your way to the Wave Lab, tell no one – this place lives only for those who listen.
At the Campus Party, Rene Pauli’s Piano Bar will open its doors in the TalTech Main Building Café. This is a unique pop-up piano bar where the setlist is created by the party guests.
Write your song request on a sticky note, attach it to the piano, and that will become the next song. All requests are welcome, from Sinatra to Espresso Macchiato.
At the piano is Rene Paul Allkivi, a TalTech alumnus in Business Information Technology. Already during his university years, Rene was an active promoter of student life: he founded the legendary Tipikas Sauna Marathon, worked as a producer in the Film Club, and organized parties at the student bar Pööning. For one evening, he is back at the university. Get your song request ready and meet us by the piano!
The representative teams of the TalTech Sports Club 2024/2025 season will officially make their debut to the public at Academician's Alley.
You will have the chance to witness men's basketball, women's and men's volleyball, men's and women's table tennis, as well as the cheerleaders teams.
All team members will be introduced individually, and there will also be an opportunity to have informal conversations with the members of the representative teams.

Environmentally Friendly Event
The TalTech Campus Party is organised in accordance with the Good Practice of Environmentally Friendly Events and has been awarded the TalTech Green Event label. In recognition of its commitment to sustainability, the Campus Party was named TalTech’s Green Act of the Year 2024.
Our approach includes:
- Sorting waste by type
- Using reusable dishes and utensils
- Providing meat-free meals
- Offering free refills for participants’ own water bottles
- Monitoring and limiting energy consumption
- Reducing noise pollution through the use of silent disco technology
- Reusing leftover wristbands from previous large-scale events
- Encouraging the use of public transport and light mobility solutions
- Avoiding pyrotechnics and single-use decorations
- and much more
The Campus Party is more than an entertaining event: it serves as an inspiring example of how large-scale gatherings can be organised in an environmentally responsible manner. It invites both participants and organisers to adopt and advocate for greener choices.
