The artist Robin Packalén was not seen at the Linna party last year.
Before Independence Day, he said on his social media that he received an invitation to the Presidential Palace, but announced at the same time that he would not be able to participate.
Now Packalén tells in his Instagram storiesthat has received a new invitation this year. He has added a picture of the Finnish flag and also added a picture of the invitation with his name on it.
Story publications are available for viewing 24 hours after their publication.
Last year, Robin Packalén said that he was prevented, because he was on tour at the same time.
– Unfortunately, I won’t be able to attend this time because of the Asian tour. I will raise a toast to Finland in Shanghai, he wrote.
He thanked the president on social media Alexander Stubbia for the invitation and the great honor.
