Development of Imatrankoski

"We are renewing the center of Imatrankoski and promoting the development of commercial services. We will concentrate the city's services in the center area as much as possible, e.g. immigration services.  

We promote Imatrankoski's entertainment, cultural and event offerings and offer a versatile and attractive theater program.  

We still consider Imatra to be the busiest event city in the province and we especially make use of local artists, including children and young people"
