More than 50 saunas throughout the Finnish capital of Helsinki will open their doors free of charge during Helsinki Sauna Day on March 11 next year.
They include saunas in private homes, residential saunas in apartment buildings, hotel saunas, tent saunas, trailer saunas, one sauna inside a van and a floating sauna.
Helsinki’s newest public saunas, Löyly and Allas Sea Pool, took part in this year’s event, when people enjoyed “sauna marathons” by hopping from sauna to sauna throughout the day.
Although the event originated in Helsinki, saunas throughout Finland are beginning to take part in the event.
