Over 200 events at Espoo Day 2025 – thank you to all visitors and organizers!

Espoo Day was once again celebrated across the city on the last weekend of August. The 2025 programme brought together more than 200 events organized by local associations, businesses, residents, various communities and the City of Espoo itself. There was something to see and experience in every corner of the city.

This year, Espoo Day was held as a two-day city festival on Friday 29 and Saturday 30 August. On Friday, celebrations took place in daycares and schools, as well as through various art and culture events in the evening.

The festivities culminated on Saturday with the traditional Espoo Day, as free events filled the city from morning until evening. Residents were able to celebrate their hometown together, and in total, Espoo Day attracted around 100,000 participants this year.

A warm thank you to everyone who took part in Espoo Day!

Towards Espoo Day 2025!

As spring and summer approach, so does the planning of one of the highlights of the year for Espoo residents – Espoo Day. Just like last year, this city-wide celebration will take place on Friday and Saturday, August 29–30, 2025.

This year’s theme is “Responsibly together!”. Responsibility can be reflected through safety and health, inclusivity, accessibility, environmentally conscious choices – or all of these combined. Collaboration is a core value across Espoo, and Espoo Day offers a great opportunity to highlight ideas that are planned and carried out together. This joint celebration is built on events created and organized by the Espoo community.

During the spring, we will host open Ask About Espoo Day online sessions, where we’ll be available to answer any questions related to Espoo Day. You’re welcome to join, get inspired, brainstorm your own event, and learn more about Espoo Day!

The dates for the Ask About Espoo Day sessions, along with participation links, are as follows:

Thursday 10.4. at 16:00

Thursday 8.5. at 16:00

Thursday 5.6. at 16:00

Event registration for the Espoo Day calendar will open during May. Once again, the calendar will be created in collaboration with Visit Espoo. You’re warmly welcome to reach out to us already — feel free to contact us at espoo.paiva@espoo.fi with any questions or ideas.

The journey towards Espoo Day 2025 begins!
