The theme of the day is "Happiness Day of Finland", offering visitors of all ages and backgrounds the opportunity to experience the elements of Finnish happiness and explore the innovative ways how the Finnish textile and fashion companies solve the industry's global challenges.
Expo 2025 Osaka will be held from April 13 to October 13, 2025, under the theme “Designing Future Society for Our Lives”. The event is expected to attract around 28 million visitors. The Nordic Pavilion—jointly hosted by Finland, Denmark, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden—will welcome an estimated 1.7 million guests during the Expo. Finland Day will be celebrated at the pavilion on June 12.

During Finland Day we will highlight Finnish innovations in fashion and textiles both during the day and in the evening party,” says Finland’s Commissioner General Nita Pilkama from Business Finland.
