tilapäivä

Tilapäivä is a Finnish term that translates to temporary day or a day of a temporary nature. It is often used in contexts where a specific day is designated for a short-term event, activity, or arrangement that is not part of a regular schedule. This could apply to various situations, such as a special market day, a one-off cultural event, or a temporary closure of a service. The core concept is that the day itself is not a permanent fixture but rather a distinct occasion for a limited duration.

In practice, a tilapäivä might be announced in advance to inform the public about its occurrence and purpose. For instance, a local municipality might declare a tilapäivä for a flea market in a public park, or a museum might have a tilapäivä with extended opening hours for a particular exhibition. The term emphasizes the transient character of the day, setting it apart from the usual routines. It can also refer to a day when a temporary worker is employed or a day on which a temporary arrangement is in place. The specific meaning is usually clarified by the context in which the word is used.
