Helsinki Celebrates Its Birthday

Helsinki is a wonderful place, home to many historic festivals and traditional Finnish traditions. However, Helsinki is very much a modern city and also plays host to a number of sporting events, rock concerts and lively celebrations. Helsinki has many cultural attractions and plenty of theatres and concert halls as well as an opera house. There is enough to entertain almost all visitors. The summer months are when the best selection of festivals are held and there are also many other things to do. Helsinki Paiva, or Helsinki Day, is held each June and marks the birthday of the city. Traditionally, the day starts with the mayor taking morning coffee and the celebrations continue throughout the day. Visitors to the city can enjoy a variety of performances, concerts, exhibitions and guided tours. Helsinki Day is just part of Helsinki Week, which has grown up around Helsinki Day and aims to provide residents and visitors alike with a diverse programme of events from the city centre to the most distant parts of the city. Festivals include old favourites such as Pihlajamaki Goes Blues, the Guards Band Festival, Helsinki Samba Carnival and Les Lumieres – Enlightenment Era Cultural Festival which offers literature, music, science and dance from the American era of George Washington. New events may be added including the Nordic Juggling Convention which attracted professional and amateur jugglers from across the world.
