Welcome to Helsinki Tea Festival first tea gathering!

We invite you to come and serve or just enjoy tea in Kaivopuisto after noon on 17.8. Gathering is an open tea picnic where anyone can serve tea or enjoy others tea.
We ask everyone coming to the gathering to take care of their trash, be self-organising and mindful.

Coming to serve tea?

As equipment you should bring tea and your tea making equipment except water and burners. For water you'll only need a thermos bottle since we'll organise the hot water centrally for everyone coming to serve tea. The water will be gathered from Dagmar spring near Tammisaari. For your and others comfort we ask you to bring picnic blankets and other suitable picnic accessories with you.

Please let people know you're coming to make tea in the comments so they know to come and see you.

Coming to enjoy tea?

To come you'll need an open mind, own cup and a bowl. Maybe you could bring a snack that is suitable for you?
