Yes.

There are many places around the capital area where one can get a space
for meeting. In Espoo, for example, one can use
https://varaamo.espoo.fi/ to search for options on a specific date among
all municipal places. I'm sure Helsinki has a similar set up as well.

Availability wouldn't be a big issue if we choose a date that doesn't
overlap with any of big holidays.

I'm willing to help with activities in Nordic too. ;)
