The ‘World in Kymi’ event brings together different cultures, people and communities on Saturday 22 August from 9 am to 12 noon. Held at Karhula Market Square and the parish centre, the event offers visitors the chance to enjoy music, dance, local performers and colourful traditional costumes, as well as to learn about the work of local associations and organisations.

Held since 2018, the event offers people who have moved to Kotka and Finland from around the world the chance to showcase their skills and culture. The event will be hosted by Kerli Puusepp.

Grilled sausages will be on sale.

The event is organised by the City of Kotka’s Integration Services, the Kotka-Kymi Parish, Leader Sepra/Europe Direct Kymenlaakso, and the ‘Kotona täälläkin’ initiative run by Koskenrinne ry. This free event is also part of ‘Mielessä tuulee’ week. Come along, have a good time and meet new people!
