An important aspect of the EFPSA Congress is the opportunity to make new friends and engage in international networking. In some ways, the Congress has a relatively fixed social programme since a lot of wonderful traditions have taken form in the last 25 years, which are carried on from congress to congress. Experienced congress participants will enjoy to revisit traditions such as the Cultural Evening, but the social programme will also be marked by a Danish spirit with a fairytale ball and plenty of ‘hygge’.

The excursion is always a great element of the social programme which allows you to get to know the Congress country a bit better. Make sure to bring 225 DKK or €30 to pay for the excursion – you wouldn’t want to miss it!

During this unforgettable evening, the participants offer their country’s typical food and drinks – a large variety of tastes –for most of us completely new and sometimes extraordinarily different.
