I didn't plan to visit Rovaneimi as I've heard mixed reports. I'd love to see the Midnight Sun but will arrive in Helsinki July 28th. I think prime times for veiwing it are Mid June - Mid July. Maybe just a little too late - I'll also miss the wife-carrying championships in Sankajarui.  Perhaps more of an attraction for me would be heading up to the artic circle to see the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) in winter.

Dont need to go to arctic circle to see the northern lights. Even HEL has them visible a lot in winter.
I could see how Rovaneimi isn't everyone's cup of tea, but it does have the advantage of being easily accessible part of arctic circle.
