FOXOtapahtumiens

FOXOtapahtumiens is a digital media platform that aggregates and curates events, cultural activities, and entertainment news within Finland. Launched in 2018 by a team of former journalists and event organizers, the site aims to provide a comprehensive, searchable database of concerts, festivals, exhibitions, and community gatherings. The name blends the English abbreviation "FOX" with the Finnish word "tapahtumien," meaning "of events," emphasizing a cross‑lingual brand identity.

The platform operates through a combination of user‑generated content and editorial curation. Event organizers can upload details directly via an online submission tool, while teams of editors verify dates, venues, and ticket availability. A search interface allows users to filter by city, genre, date, and price range. In addition to basic listings, FOXOtapahtumiens publishes feature articles, interviews with performers, and reviews of recent events, offering contextual insights for readers seeking deeper engagement.

FOXOtapahtumiens has expanded to a mobile application in 2020, which introduced push notifications for ticket sales and last‑minute cancellations. Partnership agreements with ticketselling services such as Ticketmaster and Mplayer enable integrated ticket purchasing on the platform. In 2022 the company reported a user base of over 350,000 monthly visitors, ranking among the top three event‑information sites in the Nordic region according to market research firms.

The platform is funded through a combination of advertising revenue, affiliate commissions from ticket sales, and subscription tiers that offer premium features like early‑access tickets and personalized recommendations. While the service is predominantly in Finnish, summaries of major events are available in English to accommodate international audiences interested in Finnish cultural life.
