Rajakatse - Three decades of live action role-playing
Museum Centre Vapriikki, Tampere
- 20.3.2026–2.8.2026
The exhibition features an extensive selection of photographs from Rajakatse's LARP events over the decades.

Rajakatse (“Border Gaze”) is Finland’s longest-running LARP, which started in 1995. Since then, there have been more than one hundred games. The fantasy world of Rajakatse draws inspiration from medieval Europe, and the events in the games mainly take place in the vicinity of the tavern Vanha Pipari (“Old Gingerbread”). Rajakatse mainly organises its sessions in an old fantasy village built in Sairakkala, Hollola, where the tavern is also located.
Visitors can also use the Larpmaster software to design their own characters. The exhibition has been compiled by Rajakatse Fantasia ry.
