SPECIAL HAPPENINGS

Peeveli's CRAP Bazar

Here we will collect the relics and lovely junk that our employees have hoarded! Acceptable payment methods are Siirto, MobilePay, and cold hard cash.

Mega dung heap

We've been doing some spring cleaning. We cleared out a bunch of product prototypes and returned items plus some other weirdos and threw them onto the dirt cheap Dunk Heap in the store. Come and see what we've got!

Gunpoint Helsinki

Gunpoint Helsinki will be at the War Flea Market hosting a quick pistol grip workshop with a Bluegun and telling more about their indoor shooting range. In addition to pistol shooting, the place is also suitable for rifle training. During this day, Gunpoint also offers rifle and pistol shooting at the range at 12, 2 ja 4 o’clock Ten shots with a rifle or pistol for 15 € or ten shots with both guns for 20 €.

Additionally at 1, 3, and 5 pm you can participate in a 50-min introductory shooting session that includes the safety training, guidance, insurances plus 20 shots with a .22 cal pistol and 10 shots with a 9 mm pistol. 50 €/person (norm 65 e). Each session fits nine people and you can sign up at the Gunpoint booth or directly at the range.

Jämä pattern copying station

At our own Jämä pirate bay you can copy the patterns of the Jämä products that we will no longer be selling. There is some pattern paper available, but you should still bring your own, especially if you come a bit later. The copying station is located inside the store. The Luhka and Blanket Shirt patterns are not available.

FOOD AND DRINK

Gorilla BBQ & Meat will satisfy your hunger in exchange for money.

You'll get a chance to try out some of Kuivalihakundi's delicious meats. If dried meat arouses your taste buds, you can buy bags of it from our store to take home.

Blå Band will also be there, and you can try out their hiking foods, so that you’ll know which ones to take with you into the wilderness.

In addition, the legendary military canteen van "sotkuauto" will be at the premises to offer coffee and some sweet pastries. Come enjoy a warm drink and exchange war stories!

Sotima terrace season opens

Our bar Sotima will serve thirsty people until 8 pm. Both cold and hot drinks available, welcome!
