Alvar Aalto week 2025
Rovaniemi's Alvar Aalto Jubilee culminates in Alvar Aalto Week in the world's northernmost Aalto city.
In 2025, Rovaniemi will celebrate the Alvar Aalto Jubilee with the theme Arctic Everyday Aalto. The Jubilee will culminate in the Alvar Aalto Week, which will take place in Rovaniemi on 29 September – 5 October 2025. In the world’s northernmost Alvar Aalto city, the Arctic is an integral part of everyday life. The Arctic draws its strength from light, nature and the seasons – just like Alvar Aalto’s architecture and design.
The theme of Rovaniemi’s festive year reflects the thinking of Alvar Aalto: beauty and functionality are not just for celebrations but are present and close to everyday life. We invite residents and visitors alike to reflect and experience what the world’s northernmost Alvar Aalto city looks like and how Aalto’s handiwork is seen and felt in our Arctic everyday life.
