HEL:
Helsinki Craft Beer Festival

24032023 marked the start of the Helsinki Craft Beer Festival, a vibrant celebration of Nordic and international brewing innovation that draws beer enthusiasts, brewers, and industry professionals from across the globe. Held in the heart of Finland’s capital, the festival showcases hundreds of craft beers—from smoky sahti and hoppy IPAs to experimental sour ales and barrel-aged stouts. With live music, food pairings, and expert-led tastings, it's a must-attend event for anyone passionate about the art of brewing.

For American craft beer aficionados and industry insiders, attending the festival often means a long-haul journey to HEL. While beer lovers may dream of a direct flight with a cold pint in hand, most travelers connect through European hubs. To make the most of the trip, many choose business flights that offer comfort and flexibility, especially when balancing leisure with professional networking or brewery collaborations.

A business class flight is an ideal way to arrive refreshed and ready to sample the full range of offerings. With spacious seating, premium service, and high-quality meals that contrast nicely with in-flight economy fare, business class tickets help minimize jet lag and maximize enjoyment. For brewers or distributors attending meetings before or after the festival, the quiet environment of a business class cabin provides a productive space to prepare presentations or review contracts.

First class flights, available on select carriers, offer an even more refined travel experience, complete with private suites and personalized attention—perfect for VIP guests or those celebrating a special occasion alongside the festival. Whether you're scouting new trends or simply indulging in Finland’s booming craft scene, the journey can enhance the overall experience.

Helsinki itself is a stylish, walkable city with a thriving food and drink culture, making it an excellent destination for an extended stay. Many visitors extend their trip to tour local breweries, visit design shops, or enjoy Finnish saunas—completing the ultimate Nordic getaway.
