We kick off the “Keuruu Lights” (Keuruun Valot) weekend on Friday with a “Night of Shopping” (Ostosten Yö), featuring special offers from local Keuruu businesses. Supermarkets and the brick-and-mortar shops in the town center will extend their opening hours. At Keuruu Church, we begin the “Light Path” (Valopolku) festivities with a preview event, featuring a video light installation from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM.
On Saturday, the “Light Path” (Valopolku) event continues from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM. Wander along this magical path to discover stunning light installations and various performances at the central square, the market square, and the waterfront by the library. The route covers approximately 1.5 km and winds through the center of Keuruu.
Keuruu Church will once again host a spectacular video light installation—an attraction that drew a couple of thousand visitors last year.
At the Local History Museum (Kotiseutumuseo) next to the church, you can visit Santa Claus’s cabin to share your Christmas wish list and even try your hand at “fishing” for a Christmas treat.
At the Keuruu Library, the children’s theater group *Loihu* will present *Toivo the Elf and the Christmas Commotion* (Toivo-tonttu ja jouluhässäkkä) at 5:30 PM.
Throughout our various locations, you will also find fairy tales, music, and enchanting lighting displays.
Local cafés and restaurants will be on hand, offering warm drinks and snacks to satisfy both small and large appetites.
On Sunday, the festivities move to the village of Pihlajavesi, where the charming *Wanhan Pappila* (Old Vicarage) will host a Christmas Market from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM.
