Tampere is known as a city of hard work and very social past (social in the sense of cooperative and orientated towards the well-being of all). It’s also a city where lots of Finns would love to live because it’s not too big, not too small, quiet, exciting and surrounded by nature.

I’d love Tampere to be know as a real sustainable city I must say... :-) Cool things are happening at the moment elsewhere in Finland and we could take inspiration.

For now, Visit Tampere’s team is suggesting nice tips if you’re willing to organize an event or a meeting in a sustainable way.

Särkänniemi being a huge spot in town, attracting many families, they are working since last winter on creating a "coherent ecosystem of low carbon tourism services" and it’s part of Tampere 2030 project to make the city carbon neutral.
