Highlight of Naantali’s summer
The day traditionally begins at 8:00 with the announcement of the Official National Sleepy Head. According to the long-standing tradition, the chosen person is ceremonially tossed into the sea at the Old Town guest harbor.
The Sleepyhead Day program offers a lively mix for the whole family: events in Kirkkopuisto, along the waterfront and throughout the Old Town. The morning starts with a wake-up parade, and later you’ll find markets, a children’s costume competition, music and much more. Best of all, most events are free of charge.
