Bringing the Northern Lights to You

A word from Jussi Eiramo, Owner of Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort “Every year, visitors from over 115 countries come here hoping to see the Northern Lights. Since it’s not always guaranteed, we wanted to ensure our guests could experience the magic of the auroras, regardless of the weather. That's why we built the Planetarium," says Jussi Eiramo.

The Northern Lights Movie at the Planetarium has been highly praised by professionals, including the Finnish Astronomical Association and NASA, who provided support during its production. It has even been referred to by some as one of the finest aurora borealis films ever made.
