Do we need to sign up?

No registration is listed for the market, so you can just walk in.

Is it worth it for older kids?

It's a picture-book market, so it suits younger children best. School-age readers who have outgrown picture books will find less here.

About

A Christmas sale at Annantalo, Helsinki's arts center for children and young people, where picture-book makers and publishers gather in a festive mood. Families can browse the books and buy them from the people who made them. Kids also get a workshop of their own, Joululauluja koristellen (roughly, decorating with Christmas songs). Best for picture-book ages: it's a market, not a show.
