On a radiant summer afternoon, the British & Commonwealth Chamber of Commerce in Finland hosted its annual Patrons Dinner at the historic and picturesque Billnäs Gård. This year's gathering was especially significant, as it brought together B3CF Patron Members, key supporters of the Finland Float at the Lord Mayor’s Show 2025, and honoured guests including the 696th Lord Mayor of the City of London, Alderman The Rt Hon. Alastair King DL, and the Lady Mayoress.

The highlight of the evening will be Alderman King's personal reflection on the essence of the City of London - its unique blend of ancient tradition and modern innovation, its role as a global financial and cultural hub, and the civic responsibility it carries through charitable leadership, ceremonial heritage, and international engagement. His remarks promise insight into the evolving mission of the Lord Mayor, and the values that continue to define the City in a changing world.

Set against an atmosphere of tradition and diplomacy, the dinner will offer space for meaningful dialogue, renewed connections, and inspiration drawn from one of the oldest and most globally connected cities in the world.

Exclusively for B3CF Patron Members and guests by invitation.
