Finnish Sauna at Löyly sauna, bar & restaurant Wednesday 22 April at 17-19 Location: Löyly, Hernesaarenranta 4, Helsinki (tram number 6 very convenient from Helsinki city centre) Inscribed in UNESCO’s list of intangible cultural heritages since 2020, sauna is an essential part of Finnish culture and the national identity. There are only 5.4 million Finns, but the country has 3.3 million saunas. Discover this tradition at Löyly, an iconic sauna for locals in Helsinki, with a unique, direct access to the Baltic Sea! Löyly is one of the most popular things to see and do in Helsinki and the perfect setting for IPSERA 2026 participants to relax and wrap up the intensive conference days. In 2018, Löyly was among Time Magazine’s 100 Best Places to visit in the World. Don’t miss this opportunity to find out why. We have pre-booked 40 lockers (20 for women and 20 for men) for IPSERA participants. We encourage you to try the different saunas, especially the gentle steam of the smoke sauna followed by a refreshing swim in the sea. Please remember to bring your own swimsuit, as the saunas are mixed. Before or after sauna you can have a snack or dinner at Löyly restaurant.
Price: The price is 40 euros, and includes two hours in the sauna area, a towel, and a drink ticket for the bar. Registration: Confirm your attendance by registering and prepaying the activity by April 1. The registration link will be added soon. |
