Helsinki - Event

When the long winter nights come to an end and the summer arrives, Helsinki starts to celebrate, and always in style. The generously programmed Helsinki Festival takes place all over town, with celebrations continuing beyond the midnight sun's appearance.

The programme consists of classical and contemporary music, dance, theatre, popular and world music, cinema, performances and art exhibitions. The options are wide-ranging: galleries are open until midnight, music is played in parks and churches, dance groups and orchestras perform on street corners.
