WINTER 2022

Christmas in the Fortress of Hamina 1 December – 26 December 2022

As Christmas approaches, Hamina is transformed into an enchanting Christmas Town. The popular and much-awaited Hamina Fortress Christmas Event will once again be a celebration of light, art and the magic of the holiday season.  Experience the ambience of the Christmas Town when the streets, parks and boutiques in the centre of Hamina are lit and filled with Christmas decorations. The Christmas Market stalls open their doors for handmade decorative items and delicacies for all to enjoy.  The Town Hall Square and the Fortress area will offer plenty of events for the whole family.
