Host Your Event at the Harbour

Looking for a memorable venue in Oulu? Our authentic ship setting is available for meetings, company away days, family celebrations, sauna evenings, Christmas parties and other special occasions.

The ship offers a unique historic atmosphere for a wide range of events. Now over six decades old, it has served as a Finnish Navy patrol vessel at Suomenlinna and as an inspection vessel for the Oulu pilotage district.

Please note that the ship is not fully accessible, as there are high thresholds and steep stairs on board.

Training Room Submarine

Ideal for meetings, workshops and training sessions, Training Room Submarine accommodates around 20 people at tables, with flexibility for larger groups seated more closely. Modern AV equipment and movable meeting tables make it easy to adapt the space to suit your event.
