Language: The official language of Lapland is Finnish. However, there are also a number of people who speak Swedish, mainly in the coastal regions. Further north, you’ll also find Sami people who still speak their native languages. The northernmost municipalities of Lapland where the Sámi people are the most numerous form the Sami Domicile Area. Sami organisation exists in parallel with the provincial one.

Events in LaplandLapland's cold and wintry climate, coupled with its relative abundance of conifer trees such as pines and spruces, means that it has become associated with Christmas in some countries, most notably the United Kingdom, and holidays to Lapland are common towards the end of the year. However, the Lapland region has developed its infrastructure for year-round tourism. For example, in the 2019 snow-free period tourism grew more than in the winter season. [3] Rovaniemi is the main regional centre of Lapland, and the Rovaniemi Airport is the third busiest airport in Finland. [4] Besides tourism, other important sectors are trade, manufacturing and construction. [5] [6] Like Rovaniemi, Inari is also one of the most important tourist destinations in Lapland for foreign tourism.

Kemi-Tornio, Rovaniemi, Kittilä, Ivalo and Enontekiö airports are located in Lapland. The flight time from Helsinki is about 1,5 hours.

During the Interim Peace and beginning of the Continuation War the government of Finland allowed the Nazi German Army to station itself in Lapland as a part of Operation Barbarossa. After Finland made a separate peace with the Soviet Union in 1944, the Soviet Union demanded that Finland expel the German army from its soil. The result was the Lapland War, during which almost the whole civilian population of Lapland was evacuated. The Germans used scorched earth tactics in Lapland before they withdrew to Norway. 40 to 47 per cent of the dwellings in Lapland and 417 kilometres (259mi) of railroads were destroyed, 9,500 kilometres (5,900mi) of roadways were mined, destroyed or were unusable, and 675 bridges and 3,700 kilometres (2,300mi) of telephone lines were also destroyed. Ninety per cent of Rovaniemi, the capital of Lapland, was burned to the ground, with only a few pre-war buildings surviving the destruction. Geiling, Natasha. "Where Does Santa Live?
