Random Play Dance, or RPD, is a fun dance game where participants dance to different songs while the music randomly switches from one song to another. When a familiar song starts playing, the dancers try to recognize the song and dance to its choreography as well as they can. RPD is a fun way to test both your dancing skills and your knowledge of different songs – and most importantly, to have fun together! TAKE NOTE! The event is aimed at young people aged 12–20.
The event is in Swedish. Free entry! All brave children are warmly welcome! If you want, you can dress up in a spooky costume. The event is organized by Fibul in cooperation with Svenska Kulturfonden and Rikhardinkatu Library. After dark, the library transforms and fills with creatures of the night. The white lady glides silently around, the zombie orchestra plays music, and the monstrous monster in the basement wakes up again. Create scary spiders and meet a real spider expert, step into the sinking ship Lysinea with the book's author, participate in witch Ordelia Sanasuo's creepy word workshop, order a spooky picture from the image-spitting artist robot, take a break at the Monster Café, and experience even more programs and surprises! The program is free, and all who dare are warmly welcome! Organized by Fibul with support from
