Vapautuspäivät ('Liberation Days') is one of Finland's oldest LGBTQ+ events, commemorating the decriminalisation of homosexuality in Finland. Held in Helsinki and other Finnish cities, it's a more politically focused event than pride parades — combining lectures, cultural programming, and community gatherings to reflect on how far the movement has come and how far it still has to go. A thoughtful counterpart to the more celebratory Helsinki Pride.
