Depending on the information available and where you look, as much as half of the city might be people from cultures other than Estonia. To celebrate this, and learn about our neighbours, Tallinn is holding the Days of National Cultures 2025 event from 20\u201328 September.<\/p>\n
For nine days, there will be 57 individual events introducing participants to the various minority cultures in and around the city.
