Christmas tree sales site, Kurjenpolvenpuisto, Viertola, Vantaa

The City of Vantaa is auctioning seasonal use rights, through an online ascending-bid auction, for selling Christmas trees at the site specified. The Christmas tree sales period is 7–24 December 2026.

A total of six Christmas tree sales sites will be auctioned. A separate online auction will be held for each site on Huutokaupat.com. The City will not permit Christmas tree sales elsewhere in the city's public areas. Please note, however, that the City cannot prevent Christmas tree sales on private properties.

All bids submitted are binding.

The operator is independently responsible for obtaining any other permits and submitting any notifications that the sales activity may require.

Vantaa tram construction works are being carried out near the site. The works may affect traffic flow, routes and accessibility in the area. Bidders are asked to take this into account when placing a bid.

Only Christmas tree sales may be carried out in the areas. The Public Order Act and the following conditions must also be observed:

• Winter maintenance and gritting of the sales area is the operator's responsibility.

• Structures and equipment installed in the area must be loose furnishings that:

  • do not cause danger or obstruction

  • do not damage street structures or vegetation

  • can, if necessary, be immediately dismantled or moved.

• If the sales site is located near a transformer or similar facility, the trees must be positioned so that access to the transformer or other such facility remains unobstructed.

• The Road Traffic Act must be observed when using and parking vehicles.

• The area and its immediate surroundings must be kept clean and tidy. The auction winner is responsible, at their own expense, for arranging the waste management required by the activity.

• After the sales period, the area must be restored to its original condition. The auction winner is responsible for cleaning the area and dismantling any temporary structures and equipment installed there.

• Any additional conditions and instructions issued later must be observed.
