Let’s celebrate together!

Enjoy a gourmet dinner with FinnFest friends and special guests from Finland and the US. Join us for a fabulous summer night of programming and FinnFest 2025 Award ceremony.

Hosted in the beautiful historic Greysolon Plaza Moorish Room in downtown Duluth. Step into a time when opulence meant ornate chandeliers, mahogany walls and hand-painted ceilings. Built in 1925 as the Hotel Duluth, it was widely acclaimed as one of the finest hotels on the continent. Today, Black Woods has restored the building to its original splendor, making it a memorable event space. This historic ballroom has been beautifully restored to create a unique venue for events like ours.

Social hour starts at 5:30pm and the Gala Dinner follows at 6pm. Dress code is dressy casual.
