Two of Finland’s premier summer events are joining forces. The Savonlinna Opera Festival and the 75th anniversary edition of Secto Rally Finland are inviting audiences to experience how world-class moments are created both on the stage of Olavinlinna Castle and on the legendary gravel roads of Central Finland.
The partnership aims to inspire new audiences to discover both events. Rally fans are invited to complete their summer of unforgettable experiences with a visit to Savonlinna before the FIA World Rally Championship heads to Jyväskylä, while opera lovers will have the opportunity to experience the unique atmosphere of Secto Rally Finland at the iconic Harju Special Stage, either from the Harju Club hospitality area or the Harju VIP, right at the heart of the world’s best rally.
– Throughout the year, we have been building partnerships and ticketing collaborations with organisations across different sports, including floorball, figure skating and ice hockey clubs. Now, we want to broaden our horizons even further by creating connections with entirely new experience-based events and reaching audiences who may not yet have discovered what we have to offer. We strongly believe that together we can create something even greater, says Paula Paappanen, Commercial Director of Secto Rally Finland.
The collaboration is built around a shared idea: unforgettable experiences that move people, whether it is a perfectly sung high note or a perfectly paced jump driven to the pace notes.
– We are delighted to begin this collaboration and warmly welcome rally fans to Savonlinna to experience the unique atmosphere of the Opera Festival. Opera is for everyone, and we want to make it easier for new audiences to discover world-class performances, even if they have never attended before. At the same time, we are excited to introduce our own visitors to one of Finland’s most iconic sporting events, says Christian Riutta, Sales and Marketing Director of the Savonlinna Opera Festival.
Both the Savonlinna Opera Festival and Secto Rally Finland believe this partnership demonstrates how culture and sport can complement one another, creating new connections between audiences. The two events are united by powerful emotions, international appeal, Finnish excellence and unforgettable experiences.
The Savonlinna Opera Festival and Secto Rally Finland warmly welcome everyone to experience two of Finland’s most remarkable summer events. The best memories are created when high notes meet high speed.
