During the festival’s first years, this is where it all got started. Still today, Sokos Hotel Tapiola Garden is the place to go after concerts. From Wednesday to Saturday you can join the official after party at April Jazz Club with a jam session hosted by Espoo Big Band. You have a great chance to catch many of the international and domestic artists jamming until early hours. Free entry!
Or, why not visit the bar or restaurant before heading to the concert. And make sure to book your room at the hotel since it is by far the most reasonable place to stay during the festival – only a 3 minute-walk from the Espoo Cultural Centre.
If looking to stay right at the centre of the festival and feel the festival vibe, take a look and book your room!
