The atmospheric Laurinmäki museum area (Hakoistentie 371, Janakkala) is full of Christmas magic on 29 Nov, 12:00–16:00.

The abundant Christmas market is once again full of cheerful gift ideas, beautiful decorations and festive treats, stretching from the Yellow House to the museum yard.

There will be atmospheric Christmas programs throughout the event area. On site: Santa Claus, Höppänä the elf, the elf from Leo-Lelupaja, Aapeli the elf and Adalmiina the elf. Festive melodies will be performed at Tarinmaa village association’s Christmas café by the Ants in the Pants Duo at 13:00, 14:00 and 15:00. Between music sets, special elves from Korvatunturi will visit the stage. A cozy Santa’s workshop opens in the museum’s main building, where the dearest Christmas wishes are received. On the yard, Höppänä the elf roams, entertaining children with cheerful music and program acts.

An atmospheric candle-lit path leads from the museum area to the Church of St. Lawrence, where you can warm up/quiet down/relax and listen to a harp concert by Hilda Kunnola. Mulled wine will be served at the door and blankets and cushions will be available. The harp’s beautiful melodies open the door to the Christmas story, warmth and gratitude. The Christmas relaxation concerts will take place at 14:15–14:45 and 15:15–15:45. Welcome to the event!

During the event, the Tarinmaa region village association will run a Christmas café at the Yellow House. Delicious crepes and sausages, coffee, tea, mulled wine and pastries are served.
