Paasitorni (Helsinki Workers' House)
1 saveRecommendation by Lemi
This castle-like hotel and events space was built in 1908 by Finnish-Swedish architect, Karl Lindahl. It was made to be a conference center and leisure facility for middle class workers. It is most notable for its rounded silhouette and gray granite stone walls, adding a bit more romance to the already romantic Helsinki. Art Nouveau chandeliers from the 1920s still hang from the Congress Hall’s ceiling. The building is also of historical significance as it served as the Reds’ headquarters during the Finnish Civil War.

I’ve seen quite a bit of performances in this venue, both local and foreign artists. My top three is easy to narrow down, though, since I normally don’t like watching concerts here. (It’s hard to see for someone who’s 4’11 like me because there are no bleachers.) These, however, are exceptions: 1. One Direction: On The Road Again Tour 2. Coldplay: A Head Full of Dreams 3. Ed Sheeran

Where it all started for me! My first major assignment as an editorial assistant for our magazine was interviewing Patrick Stump and Andy Hurley of Fall Out Boy in 2009. *screams* Since then, I’ve watched more concerts here—still the venue with the best acoustics, in my opinion! Some of my favorite concerts here are: 1. Fall Out Boy: Save Rock and Roll Tour 2. Lady Gaga: The Fame Ball Tour 3. Avril Lavigne (Lol!) 4. The Moffatts: The Farewell Tour 5. Incubus: If Not Now, When? Tour 6. In The Mix 2016 feat. The 1975, Panic! at the Disco, Third Eye Blind, James Bay and Elle King 7. Smash Project 2012 feat. The Used and Dashboard Confessional 8. Carly Rae Jepsen 9. Jason Mraz feat. Toca Rivera
