rymy 2026 pre-tour tornio
​
Join us for the RYMY 2026 Pre-Tour, where you can combine valuable networking with an unforgettable travel experience.
​
TornioHaparanda is a unique twin city at the northernmost tip of the Bothnian Bay, along the Torne River. One community in two countries, two currencies, and two time zones create a fascinating borderless destination that brings people together.
The four seasons offer striking contrasts, from icy winters to gentle summers and lush river valleys. Local stories and border history can be explored at the Tornio Valley Museum.
​
After the tour, you will continue your conversations and build connections with industry partners at RYMY 2026
