The theme is Tourism in Imatra for 250 years.

This year, Imatra Day is celebrated on Saturday, August 20.8.

Dozens of clubs and associations from Imatra are celebrating the city's own celebration this year as well.

─ And the cooperation can accommodate more companies, associations and organizations. Let's make a great day together again for the people of Imatra and our guests. After two corona years, it's great to be able to celebrate the city's own day again, event producer Mari Haaparanta says.

Tourism in Imatra and all of Finland started thanks to Imatrankoski already in the 1700th century. The jubilee year is reflected in Imatra day in different ways.
─ Companies, projects and associations working in tourism in this region are welcome to tell about their own activities at the event. We have already received a great number of registrations and I promise that everyone who wants to will definitely be able to join, Haaparanta promises.

The traditional sections of the day are also on the program. First, the townspeople are offered cake coffees AM The festivities start at Inkerinaukio and at midday at Koskenpartaa, where the year's key figures are commemorated with the Imatra medal as with other various awards.

There is enough program in the city center until midnight. During the day, the rapids bubble up twice, the first time at 18 pm and the second time at midnight.

In addition, a stadium concert

Also produced by Warner Music Live in collaboration with Imatra Pallo-Veikkoin (IPV). Pesisstadion Live brings top domestic artists to the Ukonniemi Stadium for the evening of Imatra Day.
