New Year Celebration Begins at 8pm
Oulu’s New Year celebration will begin in at 8pm on New Year’s Eve in the Market Square.
Heikki Viertola, the Oulu Business Centre Executive Director, says that the event begins early to allow families with young children to enjoy part of the festivities.
However, he hopes that for health and safety reasons, with the presence of young children, revellers will avoid letting off their own fireworks in the square and simply enjoy the organised display.
The events will include a speech by an Oulu Member of Parliament and music by a local quartet: IFK Uleåborg.
