Finnish Glass Biennale
Welcome to the international glass festival, the Finnish Glass Biennale, a diverse event for lovers of glass art and culture, as well as professionals in the creative industries. Glass will be celebrated in Riihimäki, Nuutajärvi and Iittala from 5 to 8 June 2025.
The main venue of the Glass Biennale is the historic Riihimäki Old Glass Factory. In June, the ground floor of the factory will be occupied by an exhibition showcasing the possibilities of glass, a program stage and a glass bar run by top chef Markus Aremo.
“The Finnish Glass Biennale program is more than the sum of its individual events: it is surprising, unique and boundary-breaking. I know that this whole thing will gain new passionate friends for glass and give artists and those working in the industry new job opportunities. In addition, the Old Glass Factory will come back to life! That is also something that many people probably didn’t think they would see,” says Hanna Mamia-Walther, director of the Finnish Glass Museum.
