Build, Bake, and Compete – Sign Up for SLU’s Gingerbread House Competition 2025!
Do you have what it takes to be this year’s master baker? Both students and staff are invited to build, bake, and show off their hidden talents in the SLU University Library’s most wonderfully scented competition!
SLU’s popular gingerbread house competition is back! So take a break from theories and exams, and let your creativity shine. Build a classic gingerbread house, or let your imagination run wild and create something completely unique. No idea is too big, too small, or too quirky for this competition.
All SLU students and staff in Umeå are welcome to join, either individually or as a team. The entries will be on display in the SLU Library from 1–12 December, and during that time, visitors can vote for their favorite. The winning entry will be announced on 15 December.
The exhibition opens on 1 December at 10:00 with mulled wine and gingerbread cookies – everyone’s welcome to join!
