Flow Festival is known for more than music; it’s also about food – and there’s also plenty for vegetarians to enjoy. But you don’t have to wait for the festival weekend, since almost all the dishes we sample here are on offer all year round in Helsinki.
Music festivals play an essential part in the Finnish summer, and the pace doesn’t slow down as the season progresses. Whether your favourite music is tango, rock, classical, jazz or some other genre, the great number of festivals ensures that there’s bound to be something you like.
Scandinavia House in New York is the starting point for a show of four Finnish painters, all of them women, whose careers coincided with cultural and political transformations. The paintings later continue to Stockholm before returning to Helsinki as part of a larger exhibition.
