Event Sauna
(160°F to 194°F; 10% Humidity)

In Europe, sauna is rarely a solo pursuit. Instead, it’s an opportunity to relax and unwind with family and friends. Mind, body and spirit are enriched by spending time together in the dry heat of a traditional Finnish sauna.

At WORLD SPA, our Event Sauna takes communal sweating to a new level. Sauna Masters perform the theatrical ritual of sauna aufguss, artfully swirling and twirling towels that push warm, aromatic bursts of heat around the room. Essential oils and music are carefully curated to create a completely unique experience. Your senses awaken as invisible clouds of energy catapult towards you, creating an unbelievable inner and outer body experience.

When the aufguss ritual is not in session, the Event Sauna should be enjoyed like any traditional Finnish sauna.

How to use

Before entering the Event Sauna, please take a shower, then find a comfortable position (the higher up you sit, the hotter it will be). Aufguss rituals are not only soul enhancing but have the added benefit of distracting you from the heat. However, don’t ever hesitate to leave the sauna if you’re feeling at all uncomfortable. After 10 to 15 minutes, the session will be over and you will leave the sauna sweat drenched. Please head straight to one of the experiential showers nearby to cool down. You may want to follow that with a cold plunge or a visit to the snow room for a gentle cool down.
