Late Nigh Shopping starts on Thursday 9.2.2012!

Shopping, designer meet-and-greets, fashion shows, gigs, bargains and a little something to eat and drink… Take a friend with you and have a relaxing evening digging for some unique finds. The Late Night Shopping concept opens doors to boutiques, galleries, restaurants and everything in between until 9 pm every second Thursday of the month.

The first of the renewed late night shopping events, organized by We Are Helsinki and Helsinki Design District, will take place on 9 February. We will all be concentrating on the traditional sales season in January and July, so the Late Night Shopping concept will be having a break.

The Late Night Shopping program as well as a list of locations involved will be updated here.
