About this event
Annantalo launches the Children's Book Festival with fanfares, music, an introduction to the festival's exhibitions and something to eat. The opening sets off a programme that runs through the Finnish autumn break, and families are invited in from the first evening rather than kept to a press view. A gentle, celebratory way into a fortnight of children's literature in the middle of Helsinki.
Why we picked it
The opening night of a children's book festival, thrown open to families rather than invitees.
