well...there's going to be lots of stuff for sale: tour book, t-shirts, hoodie, bags, keychains, mugs, posters, cards etc. etc.

 

 

so how much money do you think I should bring, aproximetly... (notice that I haven't ordered something at all from celinedion.com... my mom won't let me... )

[Dionesque]

Honestly, it depends on what you are looking for but personally I thought I may be spending a LOT of money in the boutique and.... I bought ONLY the tourbook and my husband bought that funny light just to have something to make the atmosphere at the shows, hehe!

Somehow I'm not impressed with all the stuff and esp. with their prices. If it all would be cheaper, maybe I would be buying more stuff buy as for the moment I think only the tourbook is really worth buying it! And I'm up to buy the official T-shirt with all tour countries on it but first when they'll add Poland on it - so far there is still Turkey listed on that T-shirt so I'm still waiting...

 

I'm much more looking forward to the stuff which may be available when the tour ends: the book about Celine/tour, the book with photos made by the official photographer and of course the DVD!! I guess these stuff will be much greater memory of this tour than the items you can buy right before/after the shows.

 

My very personal opinion.

Helsinki concert must be great... Unfortunately I won't be there, but Finland is one (or THE one:)) of my favourite countries.

((I love Hartwall Arena too, in spite of I have bad memories about Tarja Turunen's letter there ))

how much was the tourbook?

[Dionesque]

30 euros.

 

Ubulka, what do you mean with this Tarja Turunen's letter?? I don't get the thing....

I just know a few songs of her but what's the story??

[nano]

30 euros.

I just know a few songs of her but what's the story??

After the Hartwall Areena (Helsinki) concert in 2005, the four other members of Nightwish decided that it was best to continue Nightwish without Tarja Turunen, the letter was given to Turunen by Tuomas Holopainen after the concert, and afterwards posted on the band’s website.

[MamaOlga]

Hello! Could anyone tell me what kind of stage in Hartwall Arena - outdoor or indoor? Thanks!

omg..can't believe it's almost time! I'm currently in Stockholm and I'm flying to Helsingki on Sunday (8th).

Can't waiiiiiit...

[reamary]

Less than 23 hours to go..!! This is so surreal!

I really hope she will sing I'm Alive in Helsinki.. I don't want to look at the setlist because I don't want to know ahead which songs will be performed or in which order they will appear, but I'm hoping for I'm Alive so much!!

[maatu89]

I would quess Celine is going to stay in Mannerheim suite - Kämp Hotel.

[Terre]

Maybe. What about Hilton?

[reamary]

Appereantly I can't count, actually there's still 28 hours to go.. I was so confused, it's the excitement I think! But anyway, that's very little!

Are you people going to go and wait outside those hotels, if you'd see something?

I wonder whether Céline has already arrived in Finland!

[MamaOlga]

Hi, everybody!!!! It's amazing to know that tomorrow we will see Celine!!! The concert will begin at 8:00 p.m.?

[-annica-]

when are you people gonna arrive at hartwall areena? when do you think Celine will arrive, it would be so amazing to see her!

[Vassykka]

I would quess Celine is going to stay in Mannerheim suite - Kämp Hotel.

 

Apparently she is not staying in Finland at all...

 

See this topic

 

Let's have fun tomorrow night at the concert! I have waited this since the concert was announced last December.

So now we know, she will be staying in Berlin, so she will just "pop in" for the show tomorrow. Same thing happened last night, she left by plane right after the concert around midnight. Or that's what the flight data told. Also no sign of her plane today in data for Helsinki. She will arrive on her private jet some time tomorrow. Anybody want a tip on how to MAYBE see her tomorrow.. Go to the VIP terminal at the airport. That's where she will be coming through. I can't because of work

[maatu89]

that's a bugger.

 

well at least she did a show in helsinki! I would like to see her more then just one consert night.

[Dionesque]

Exactely! You can give her a warm welcome at the airport in Finland and later in the concert hall!!! :clap:

Can't wait for your reviews, guys! Have a great time tomorrow evening!!!

[n loves c]

Coming to work, just saw Celine's trucks arriving to the arena
