You can get the ESNcard, if you belong to one of the following groups:

    • ESNers: either active on Local, National or International level. They are all members of a section;
    • Alumni:please contact us to see whether you are entitled to receive an ESNcard or not (Alumni status and ESNcard for alumni depend on the statutes of each ESN section);

Discounts in Turku

With the ESNcard you get, among other things, cheaper (or even free) participation in ESN parties, trips, and sport and cultural events. In addition, you get the benefits offered by our local, national and international partners. And of course, it also makes a nice souvenir! Just remember that you need to add your passport-sized photo, but it doesn't need to be of very high quality as long as you are recognisable.

For the local partners, visit our partners page or search Turku on the ESNcard site.

To access the international discounts, such as Ryanair, and Hostelling International, you need to register your ESNcard at esncard.org first!

 

P.S. We are constantly looking for more local partners to give more value for your ESNcard. Do you have suggestions? Let us know! Contact us at board@esnuniturku.fi
