The renovation of Agustanpuisto Park is complete – the playground will be inaugurated on 5 June from 5.30 p.m. to 7 p.m. 

The renovation of Agusta Park in Mattila was completed in early May. Before the renovation, residents’ views on the future of the park were surveyed. The survey highlighted the need to diversify the park. Based on these wishes, a climbing frame suitable for more demanding climbing, a nest swing and a trampoline were built in the park. An eye-catching feature of the park is a unique witch’s cottage-themed multi-purpose play structure for small children, decorated with fly agaric mushrooms at the top of the poles.  

Residents wanted activities not only for children of different ages, but also for adults and the elderly. A small exercise area was built outside the playground, where people can do bodyweight training. In the survey, people wanted natural colours for the park. The colour scheme in the park is now natural. The play equipment features natural wood surfaces, which are accentuated by the colourful details of the park furniture.   

The park also takes the environment into consideration. At the edge of the park, there is a long brushwood fence to support the area’s wildlife. Brushwood fences provide shelter and nesting sites for all kinds of insects, birds and other small animals. The material for the brushwood fence in Agusta Park was obtained from large rowan bushes that were removed from the park. The bushes were removed because the large rowan is an invasive species.  

The opening ceremony will be held on 5 June.

The opening ceremony for Agusta Park will be held on Thursday, 5 June 2025, from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. There will be games and fun activities for everyone to enjoy. Magician

Kim Wist will be performing. The show, which starts at 6 p.m., will be full of humour and energy, but also feature some impressive magic tricks.

At the opening ceremony, you can also spin the wheel of fortune for a chance to win small prizes. Participants will be offered juice boxes and snacks.

Enjoy pleasant outdoor moments in the renovated park, and welcome to the opening ceremony!
