Program
During the event days, there will be plenty of free programme for the public on two different stages on both sides of the Aura River: the Helsingin Sanomat Stage located at Varvintori and the Suomen Joutsen Stage located in front of the Suomen Joutsen.
In addition, you can find diverse regional programs in the lower reaches of Aura River and near the city centre during the days of the event.
The program culminates on Sunday at 12 noon with the spectacular Parade of Sails, as the sailing ships depart through the Archipelago Sea towards their next ports.
