Nightlife & Dining

Helsinki is packed with many bars and clubs within walking distance from the city centre. To discover some of the exclusive places, plan your pub-crawl from some of our top favourites places listed on this page.

The Finns are a gregarious lot who love to drink, party and enjoy life. Find them on weekends at some of the bars, rock shows, cocktail lounges, nightclubs or live music venues.

Generally, entrance to these places is free, although clubs do charge a fee. The minimum age limit is 18, while sometimes this may be extended to 20, 22 or even 24. Do carry your IDs, as bouncers are known to check the age proof.
