10–12 July 2026 · Vallisaari island, Helsinki

The White
Weekend

Three days. One color. Two parties, white wines and a Sunday session — all with free entry.

Once a summer, Vallisaari dresses in white. On the second weekend of July the color is chosen for you: white clothes, white wines and three nights of the nightless night — and none of the parties cost a thing. A sea-fortress island, 20 minutes from Helsinki's Market Square. All that's left for you is the ferry and the wardrobe.
