Helpfulness
About every second month Holiday club Katinkulta arranges bigger happening in Vuokatti. Music of happenings has different themes: like rock, pop, heavy etc. Artists are usually Finnihs but some of them are singing in English.
To other happenings you are able to get ticket from door but for the biggest "little chrismas" party in Finland, Winter open, you have to buy ticket in advance.

Helpfulness
Amazing shoe store.
When you look the store outside, you cannot believe what is inside. Even when you step in you may think that you have came to totally wrong place. But when you start looking and telling the sellers what you want they just dig that shoe for you.
Definitely the place where my shoes are from!
What to buy: Just ask, they will find the shoe.
