Here are some atmosphere videos from the previous events:

Saku 98 was held in the same location with this year's event. Video features Petro Tyschtschenko's speech, Delfina developers presenting their cards, audience and retailers. Apparently Doom was big on Amiga that year too :)

Saku 2012 was a smaller event in more northern Finland last year.

And if some developer or retailer wants to participate for example by coming to show, sending video or other greetings, arranging sales or discounts of his products, sponsor the event with competition prizes or promotional material, please contact organizers at suomenamigakayttajat@gmail.com

I'm curious, how many visitors are you expecting?

And last year we had at least over 60 visitors in the event in northern Finland. Now it'll be near capital city first time since over 10 years, so potential amount of visitors is much higher. My guess would be around 200, but who knows. We're trying to make it as big as possible anyway, because we won't have this kind of facilities very often :)

Very cool!  I wonder how many would show for an Amiga event in this area.  Sometimes i feel like the last remaining user in this area.
