MICE and corporate tours in Rovaniemi
DMC Rovaniemi plans and runs MICE and corporate trips in Rovaniemi and across Lapland. We work with groups from 10 to 300+, and we build each programme around what your company actually needs – the meeting, the dates, the budget, and the kind of experience you want your team to have. We put the business and the fun side together in one trip, so a day of meetings can end with a husky safari or a dinner under the Northern Lights. Our team handles the whole thing: hotels, igloos, meeting rooms, activities, transfers, and meals. You deal with one contact, not ten suppliers.
We’re also Good Travel Seal certified, and we build sustainability into the programme — working with local hotels, guides, and activity providers, keeping transfers efficient, and choosing partners who look after the Arctic environment they operate in.
Accommodation for MICE and business groups
We book the right rooms for your group, whatever the size. That can be a city hotel with proper meeting facilities, a lodge outside town, or glass igloos where your team sleeps under the aurora. For bigger groups we arrange full hotel blocks. We work with the main hotels in Rovaniemi city centre: Arctic City Hotel, Scandic Hotels and Hotel Santa Claus. For Igloo resorts we work with most popular resorts in the area: Apukka Resort, Santa’s Igloos Arctic Circle, Arctic TreeHouse and Glass Resort, among others.
We handle the booking, rates, contracts, and any special requests like late check-ins or dietary needs – so everything is sorted before your group lands.
Unique experiences and safaris
We book husky sledding, reindeer rides, snowmobile trips, ice fishing, snowshoe walks, cross-country skiing, fat-bike rides, and Northern Lights evenings, and we match them to your group’s size, pace, and schedule. These activities work just as well as a team-building afternoon as they do a reward at the end of a conference, and we can run them as a single highlight or string several together over a few days.
Our guides run the day on the ground: the kit, safety briefing, timing, and the warm clothing if your group needs it. Some groups want a full day out in the wilderness; others just want a couple of hours between meetings. We build it either way, and keep each activity sized so nobody is left waiting around in the cold.

Private transfers
We move your group around Rovaniemi and Lapland by private bus — airport to hotel, hotel to meeting venue, venue to the activity and back. Our drivers are local and know the winter roads, so a bit of snow doesn’t throw off your schedule, and they’re used to the early starts and late finishes that come with Arctic programmes. For groups heading further out, we also cover the longer routes between resorts and airports such as Rovaniemi and Kittilä. Whether it’s 10 people in a minibus or 300 across several coaches, we plan the timing around your programme so nobody is left standing in the cold waiting for a ride. We hold vehicles for the whole trip rather than booking them ride by ride, which means transfers stay on schedule even when a meeting overruns or an activity shifts.
On-site assistance and local tour leaders
For most corporate trips we put a coordinator on the ground with your group. They keep the schedule running, deal with the suppliers, and sort out anything that changes during the day — a delayed flight, a weather call on an activity, a last-minute headcount change.
It means your team can focus on the meeting and each other, and there’s always one local person to turn to who knows how things work up here.
Gala dinners and group dining in Lapland
A gala dinner is often the centrepiece of a corporate trip, and Rovaniemi gives you settings you won’t find anywhere else — a snow restaurant carved fresh each winter, a log-built wilderness lodge with an open fire, or a private hall in the city for larger groups. We arrange the venue, the menu, and the timing, and build the evening around your numbers and the tone you want, whether that’s a relaxed dinner after a day of meetings or a formal awards night to close the programme.
We work with local kitchens that cook with Lappish ingredients — reindeer, Arctic char, cloudberries, and the like — and we handle the details that make the night run: seating plans, dietary needs, drinks, music, and any speeches or AV you need.
