Christmas Parties Helsinki
Activities & entertainment for groups
Christmas stress weighing you down? Toss your everyday worries under the tree and point your sledge towards PakoMielle for Helsinki's most captivating little Christmas party – the Finnish "pikkujoulu", the festive get-together with colleagues or friends before Christmas!
An action-packed escape room is the best entertainment for a Christmas party: mystery lovers get a tough nut to crack, adventurers get to glide down from a balcony on ropes, and creative free spirits can elf around to their heart's content.
Our most popular game for Christmas parties is The Nicked Christmas, in which winter's most mysterious celebration is about to be cancelled unless Santa is found. Instead of hunting for the big boss of Korvatunturi, you can also entertain your team with a boss's blunders by choosing The Snatched Boss. And if you've got the nerve, the winter frost also pairs perfectly with the brain-tingling, serial-killer-themed Trapped by the Beast..
For English-speaking groups we offer, for example, Trapped by the Beast and The Kidnapped Artist..
Christmas parties in a nutshell: group size 2–100 people · from 50 €/person · 1–2 hours · two starting points in central Helsinki · invoicing for companies at no extra cost · slots still available in December.
A Christmas party for a hundred? No problem. One game takes 2–21 players, so a bigger crowd is split into smaller teams that play side by side or one after another — and for the very largest groups we build other activities alongside the game so nobody is left waiting for their turn. Tell us how many of you there are and we'll work out together how best to pace the evening.

Shivers under your skin, too
You can also wrap up some extra treats, such as mystery mulled wine and Christmas pastries – or even a photographer to shadow you throughout the game. If you already have a venue for your party and are looking for entertainment in or around Helsinki, say at the office or a hotel, you can book us to come to you. We can also note down every observation we make during the game with Santa-like precision and put together a team profilefor your Christmas party, with results you can take straight back to work.
Game area
In our Classic games your team spends an hour adventuring around the abandoned hospital in Meilahti, safely sheltered from the snowflakes.
In our Premium games, the two-hour adventure starts at John Scott’s restaurant in Kamppi and ends in Meilahti with a rope descent from the hospital balcony.
Actors
Our actors add extra thrills to your Christmas party by phone, on video and live.
Depending on the game, they're on your side – or against you.
You can join in the acting as little or as much as you like.
Ropes
If you're craving even more adrenaline, you can round off the party and the game by escaping from a balcony by rope.
The descent is nine metres and entirely optional for everyone.
The rope descent is included in all Premium games and can be added to Classic games too.
Story
We have six different crimes on offer.
The best fits for a Christmas party are the mulled-wine-scented The Nicked Christmas or the suspense-soaked Trapped by the Beast..
Puzzles
Overly one-sided brainteasers can trigger allergic reactions in anyone who doesn't consider themselves, say, mathematically gifted.
That's why our puzzles use many different senses, and all kinds of intelligence get their chance to shine.
Extras
You can easily order treats for your Christmas party straight to the venue. If you want to capture the day, we can arrange a photographer, so even the marketing team can just focus on having fun.
If you'd like an escape room at your own office, we can bring it to you anywhere in the Helsinki metropolitan area.

You can ask Heidi for a more precise time estimate or let her know your schedule before the game.
Getting around
Christmas party FAQ
How big a group can you take?
Up to a hundred people. One game takes 2–21 players, so a bigger group is split into smaller teams that play side by side or one after another. For the very largest groups we build other activities alongside the game so nobody is left in the corridor waiting for their turn.
How much does a Christmas party cost?
Classic 50 €/person (1 hour), Classic + 60 €/person (1.5 hours, includes the rope descent) and Premium 75 €/person (2 hours, starts in Kamppi and ends in Meilahti). The Premium price also includes an HSL ticket for the transfer by tram or bus.
Can companies pay by invoice?
Yes, at no extra cost. You can also pay in advance online, or on site by card or MobilePay.
Can I cancel a booking?
Group bookings can't be cancelled, but you can adjust the number of people. Let us know about changes in good time so we can rearrange the games.
Is the rope descent compulsory?
No. The descent is nine metres and everyone decides for themselves whether to go.
Do we need to be able to act?
Not at all. The actors take care of their part, and you throw yourselves in as little or as much as you fancy.
What about food and drinks?
Mulled wine and Christmas pastries can be ordered straight to the venue. If the evening continues at a restaurant, tell us your timings in advance and we'll fit the game around them.
Are there still slots available in December?
Yes, but the best evenings go first. Check available times in the booking calendar.
Still have a question? Send us a message and we'll get back to you.
