Tapahtumantekijät – the new organizer of Rata event
Tapahtumantekijät Oy was founded in 1992 and is one of the oldest event management agencies in Finland. Among all the event agencies in Finland, Tapahtumantekijät certainly have the longest and most extensive experience of events in the trail sector. The first touch to the field was made along with the framework agreement with Finnish Rail Administration. One of the early phase projects at that time was the opening of the Kerava–Lahti railway line, which also won an international award.
The first Rata event, in which Tapahtumantekijät participated, was organized in Jyväskylä in 2010. Later Tapahtumantekijät also produced the Rata event for the Finnish Transport Agency through a framework agreement. That period also included e.g. opening of the Ring Rail Line.
At the moment, Tapahtumantekijät has framework agreements with the authorities and public agencies related to the rail sector with Ministry of Transport and Communications, Traficom – Finnish Transport and Communications Agency and Finnish Transport Infrastructure Agency. Cooperation with several companies in the field is also familiar.
After Rata 2023, Finnish Transportation Agency decided to step down from organizing Rata event, as event organizing was not considered to be part of its actual duties. Based on the background and history of Tapahtumantekijät within the field, it seemed natural for Tapahtumantekijät to take the full responsibility of Rata event and continue organizing and producing it.
