18.09.2024 | Hyväntuulen Messut (Goodwill Fair), held at Kotka Harbour Arena on 21-22 September, is a wellbeing fair organised in the spirit of fairness, courage and love in the city.
The theme for 2024: Know your well-being
The Wellbeing Fair is a wellbeing fair organised by the City of Kotka in the spirit of fairness, courage and love at Satama Arena in Kotka Kantasatama. This is the second time the fair has been organised. Last year the fair attracted over 10 000 visitors!
The event is suitable for the whole family and admission is free.
This is an event we can all enjoy! In addition to the exhibitors, we have a varied programme of things to see and do at the fair – this year’s content includes some of last year’s favourites as well as some brand new things to do and experience – the programme will be published soon!
The Goodwill Fair is widely intertwined with different wellbeing themes – wellbeing is different for each of us. We offer our fair visitors a wide range of new and topical ideas for their own well-being, different well-being experiences and generally a good wind in their lives.
Our main themes at Fair 2024 are: everyday safety, nature and business.
