Finn-Sino Association extends its heartfelt thanks to all those who participated in this year's Chinese Culture Festival! Our partners, magnificent performers, active audience and enthusiastic volunteers all played a vital role in making this year's festival such a great success.

The festival's main events in Kontula and Tampere attracted huge numbers of people with their informative lectures, captivating performances and Chinatown market places. As a special treat, festivalgoers in Finland and Sweden had the chance to experience Chinese culture at its finest with the performances of the Northern Kunqu Opera Troupe. Zeng Laide wowed audiences with an innovative show blending traditional Chinese calligraphy and music in three Nordic countries, and the enchanting dance performances of the Beijing Modern Dance Company moved audiences in Helsinki and Tampere. And to top it all off, art exhibitions and a selection of romantic Chinese movies were brought for viewing to thousands of festival guests all across Finland.

See you next year at the Chinese Culture Festival!
