Yyteri sand beach
Visit the Yyteri sand beach, one of the largest and certainly best beaches in Finland
Pori Jazz Festival
In the middle of july. quite big names, like santana, simon & garfunkel or for example alicia keys have played here recently. really not-so-jazz-festival anymore, altough jazz & blues can also be found. one of the biggest if not the biggest festival in finland (http://www.porijazz.fi/). favorite festival of the slightly older crowd.
Porin Ãssät
In the winter, see an ice hockey game of Porin Ãssät "The Aces". Although the team isn't as succesful as it used to be, the redcoats are still an essential part of the city culture â especially the Saturday games boast an excellent atmosphere and draw in large crowds. You see the traditional Ace of Spades logo a lot around the city during the Finnish Professional Hockey League season, which begins in September and ends around March/April. Tickets 10-25⬠are available at the Sokos department store in downtown, or at the Lippu.fi website (http://www.lippu.fi).
