My wife and I will be traveling to Finland to visit relatives and do some touring (25/7 -8/8). Hoping some of the Finns that visit this board might have suggestions for car shows or cruises that might be going on during that time. We'll be be in Lappeenranta, Kajanni, Oulusalo, and Kokkola areas, pretty much all over the country. Planning to meet a couple guys from the p15-d24 forum and see there cars while I am there as well. Kaikki ehdotukset ovat tervetulleita - kiitos!
Check this out: http://www.overdrive.fi/tapahtumat/ I would use Google translator but just let me know if you need any help. Jari (akseli von gardan on HAMB) lives in Lappeenranta.
It might be too hectic but there are three great events in Sweden during your visit. The ferry ride through the archipelago might be another great experience though. Classic Car Week has all sorts of activities as well as a huge cruise; http://www.classiccarweek.com/ A-Bombers Old Style Weekend that has been covered a lot on the HAMB; http://www.a-bombers.com/ And the easiest to attend would be Wheels nationals in Stockholm with a huge cruise in the city in the evening; http://www.wheelsnationals.se/sidor/galleri-stockholm
