From 16 to 19 December there will be concerts, performances, workshops and Christmas sales in the ruins of Pirita Monastery.
The event called Pirita kloostri jõulumaa (or Pirita Monestry Christmas land in English), which was held for the first time last year, proved to be very popular.
This year, the organisers want to offer the same Christmas atmosphere and a high level of entertainment to the people of Tallinn and other visitors.
At the Pirita Monastery, you will be able to enjoy good music, watch exciting performances and take part in a variety of different workshops.
During the four days, well-known Estonian musicians will take the stage. In addition, the event will feature magic, science and theatre performances. Children will also get the chance to meet Santa Claus.
Admission to the Pirita Monastery Christmas land is free of charge.
