19:30 Finnish Summer Evening Banquet
The best time to enjoy a Finnish Summer Evening is when the sun never sets! Enjoy a modern Finnish buffet with delicacies from the untouched forests and thousands of crystal-clear Finnish lakes. Restaurant Kaivohuone was opened June 5, 1838 in a beautiful park by the sea. The first share was bought by the Csar Nikola I and since then it has served as an entertainment center for international visitors and the people of Helsinki. After renovations in 2004, its glamorous Art Noveau decor from the 1920's has been restored and it now offers you the most pleasant surroundings to enjoy dinner, live music and dancing. The outdoor terrace is the perfect place to meet your friends - in the light at midnight!

A limited number of tickets is available, pre registration is requierd (€55 Registration Fee Applies)
