The Roma National Day has been celebrated on 8 April every year since 1990. Sello Hall celebrates Roma culture with a free concert by Hilja Grönfors & Latšo Džinta.

Hilja Grönfors is an ambassador, collector and preserver of the traditional singing music of the Finnish Roma – Kale songs – as well as the most significant performer of the singing style. A powerful interpreter and performer living in the moment, born into a Roma family that led a traditional travelling life in Eastern Finland, she internalised the singing tradition and the related memories, moods and values already in her childhood. For many decades, the award-winning singer has been making the valuable, disappearing tradition known to a wide range of audiences in Finland and abroad.
