Crayfish party at Särkänlinna
The season begins on 21 July 2023
Crayfish parties are about having fun and spending time with friends – a celebration of joy, laughter and the cool evenings of late summer. Finnish noble crayfish or signal crayfish are naturally the centrepiece of the table.
There is no right way to organise a crayfish party, and there is no need to stress: a crayfish party is always about delicious crayfish and good company.
