Riihimäki Glows

RIIHIMÄKI GLOWS – LIGHT UP YOUR OWN RIIHIMÄKI

Riihimäki is glowing this year together with the city's residents.
In December, the entire city gets to shine, as residents, communities, businesses and other actors are invited to light up their own environment as creatively as they want.

The lights can be found in a window, balcony, yard, garage, bicycle, mailbox – or just about anywhere. The only limit is your imagination!

Participation period 1–31 December 2026.

💡 Enter your own lighting target

Do you want your lights to be part of the Riihimäki Glows ensemble?

Register your own light object to cultural and event services by November 21, 2026. Registration is done using the Zeff form (the form will open later).

All registered participants will receive a Riihimäki glows sticker, which they can attach to their own light fixture as a sign that they are glowing here.

The announced destinations will be compiled on the city's website so that city residents can find and tour them during December.

🏠 What could be the light object?

window or balcony
yard of a detached house or housing association
garage or storage room
bicycle or other mobility device
mailbox
company showcase
status of an association or community
public space
or any place you want to make glow
Companies, associations, communities and housing companies are also particularly invited to participate.

❤️ And you can also come without registering!

This is not a competition that you have to register for. Riihimäki Glows is above all a shared adventure.

So you can also participate by simply turning on Christmas lights, a lantern or other light in your own window, yard or balcony. The more light you see in the city, the more beautifully Riihimäki glows!
