Season Opening

Welcome to start the Autumn season at the Finnish Seamen’s Church in Rotterdam!

The Finnish Seamen’s Mission and the Embassy of Finland in The Hague are jointly organizing a Season Opening, open to everyone. This is a great opportunity to meet fellow Finns, friends of Finland, and Finnish organizations active in the Netherlands. You can also get to know the facilities and services of the Finnish Seamen’s Church in Rotterdam – and of course, enjoy the early autumn atmosphere together with good food, sauna, and music.

The event will be opened with welcoming words from the Finnish ambassador Ilkka-Pekka Similä and Finnish seamen’s pastor Jussi Luoma. Music will be provided by Rotterdam-based Finnish composer and musician Otto Rissanen with his band.

Finnish-affiliated businesses, associations, and organizations are invited to book a free presentation stand at the event. Read more and reserve a place for your company or association via the online form by August 20.

You can enjoy the delicious Harvest Buffet for 24,90 € per person. We kindly ask you to register in advance for the buffet via the online form by August 31.

The café at the Finnish Seamen’s Church will also be open as usual throughout the event.

We look forward to seeing you at the Season Opening in Rotterdam!
