Tampere, Finland
May 2026

In Tampere, the Rollaatorimarssi moved through the city in celebration of dignity, visibility, and care for older generations. Beginning at Koskikatu and crossing Hämeensilta toward Keskustori, the march carried a carnival-like atmosphere with music, dance, speeches, and community gathering at Laikunlava. More than a parade, the event was a reminder not to overlook the needs of elderly people in society.
