Anyone living or studying in Tampere is entitled to vote. There is no age limit. No official identification is required to vote, so children and young people under the age of 18 can also vote.

  • Metso Main Library (Pirkankatu 2)
  • Hervanta Library (Insinöörinkatu 38)
  • Koilliskeskus Library (Liikekatu 3)

Learn about the options before you vote

There are 93 voting options in total. You can read about them on the city's website: Voting options for the Mansen Massit Community Grant.

The options are divided into three categories according to the amount of money requested:

  • small events and activities for which the amount of Community Grant requested does not exceed €2,000
  • medium-sized events and activities with a requested amount of between €2,001 and €5,000
  • large events and activities for which the amount requested is between €5,001 and €10,000

Each voter has three votes, one for each group.

– There is a wide range of voting options, which are very different from one another. When looking for your favourite, it is worth considering whether there are any events or activities you would like to participate in. On the other hand, you can also vote for activities that you think Tampere needs more of, says Planning Officer Lotta Harsunen.

The Mansen Massit Community Grant is intended for events and activities organised by Tampere residents themselves, which are community-based, open to all and free of charge for participants. The people of Tampere decide by voting on the activities for which the money is granted. A total of €140,000 is available.
