The event takes place in the courtyard of the Annala local heritage museum. The charming Annala museum area has 22 buildings, housing nearly 8,000 items. The main purpose of the Annala museum is to showcase rural life before the era of tractors.

In the Ylimattila Arboretum you can admire more than 300 varieties of trees, shrubs and perennials. Various birch species, conifers, apple trees and rowan trees grow along the paths of the park. Ornamental bushes, roses and berry bushes bring color to the park. The arboretum is established in 2010 and it is open every day all year round.
