In Tove Jansson’s iconic Midsummer tale the stranded Moomin family is rescued from a terrifying flood when a floating theater suddenly appears and swoops them aboard on an unforgettable adventure.
Midsummer in Helsinki can make one feel a bit stranded too. What to do? Where to go? Well, for Midsummer 2020 the floating stage will appear on Töölö Bay, right in the heart of Helsinki to answer all these questions.
Midsummer Madness is turning Midsummer in the city into a Moomin adventure that all the locals and international travellers can experience on the long, bright Midsummer Eve night. The event combines the adored Moomin tales with Midsummer traditions, which both make up for cornerstones of Finnish culture.
