  • Press Release 29.8.2018
    Press release, 29 August 2018 Facilities for new services at Finlandia Hall to be built during renovation Plans are in place for an audio-visual exhibition, design store, and a drink bar on the roof The renovation project of Finlandia Hall will begin in 2021 according to the preliminary schedule. The project means not only restoration of existing premises but also construction of a framework for new services. Plans for the renewed Finlandia Hall include, for instance, an audio-visual exhibition and a design store. The kitchen will be modernized so the restaurant can be of service during large events and conferences in the future. Restaurant operations will be developed so that people from far away arrive at Finlandia Hall for dinner. A drink bar on the rooftop terrace is planned as a main attraction. For the area around Töölönlahti Bay, there are plans for glamping-type activity that connects Finlandia Hall more closely to the surrounding park area. Finlandia Hall is the largest and best-known event and conference centre in Finland. The building’s turnover has doubled in six years, and Finlandia Hall Ltd’s operation is profitable. – Finlandia Hall is very important for Helsinki both as an architectural landmark and as a living conference centre, which enables the arrangement of diverse events in the capital city of Finland. This is why special care must be taken of the building. Every year Finlandia Hall welcomes more than 200,000 visitors. According to one study, they spend almost €50 million per year on various experiences, shopping and services in Helsinki, says Anni Sinnemäki, the Deputy Mayor for Urban Environment.
