MPs are required to report only gifts, tickets, or travel if their value exceeds 400 euros.

Invitations below this threshold do not need to be declared, though some choose to do so voluntarily.

The Ruisrock music festival, held in Turku since 1970 , is especially popular among politicians.

Last summer , the City of Turku provided VIP tickets for 20 MPs and their companions, and also organised a VIP event for 100 people with drink vouchers and transport.

Midsummer 2022 was the hottest in recent years , with the highest temperature reaching 30 degrees .

In contrast, the coldest recent winter was in 2014 , when Finland saw sleet, snow and hail.

All Points North's season finale travels back in time to fifty years ago , when amid the Cold War , all eyes turned to Helsinki for historic event.
