PechaKucha Night at the Main Venue
The presentation format PechaKucha Night, developed by Japanese architects and now spread to over 2,000 cities, always delights. It’s one of the most popular evening events of Helsinki Design Week, and in 2024 it will be part of the main venue’s programme at Paasivuorenkatu 3.
The evening will feature six presentations, each lasting six minutes and forty seconds. The content of each is a complete surprise.
Presenting will be creative director Antero Jokinen, architect-artist Liisa Ryynänen, visual artist Dora Dalila, creative director Pietari Pyykönen, designers from the Noinseitsemän collective Emma Tahvanainen, Siiri Rajalin, Roosa-Emilia Ronkainen, and Samu Pitkänen, and graphic designer-podcaster Kasper Strömman. The evening will be hosted by HDW’s programme director Anni Korkman.
The presentations will be in English.
Bar Unikko in Residence at Helsinki Design Week will be open throughout the event, with colourful wines served by Let Me Wine.
The main venue for Helsinki Design Week changes every year, with the programme being designed and implemented to suit the space. This year’s PechaKucha Night venue is smaller than in previous years, and space is limited. Admission to Paasivuorenkatu 3 is free, but reservations are not possible. Please arrive early!
