Christmas in Design District Helsinki

03/12/2010 09:18

The concentration of creative businesses in Design District Helsinki organizes a Late Night Shopping event on Friday, December 3rd, offering the busiest consumers an opportunity for leisurely Christmas shopping after working hours.

The participating shops that keep their doors open beyond normal hours are marked by Late Night (S)hopping posters. There will be products for reduced prices, exhibits and Christmas-themed programme. The Design Block will light up its Christmas tree, and Glögg (mulled wine) is served in the Diana park from 2 pm to 5 pm. The block’s own gnome hands out maps of the Design District and the day’s programme, guiding shoppers into the shops.
