In-store activities

Everything you love deserves its own place at home. That’s why this year, we’re inviting you to think about not only the things you love doing, from everyday moments to long-forgotten hobbies, but also the solutions that help make room for them. Join us at IKEA for creativity, games, tasty treats and, of course, plenty of storage ideas.

 

Make space for time together

On 29 August, there’ll be plenty of activities to keep you moving. Join in the fun with music from a live DJ, a face art station, hands-on crafting, games, mascots, and mini challenges for both adults and kids.

 

The day will be hosted by Mikk Merekivi, a true IKEA fan and proud father of an IKEA fan.

 

When? 29 August
Where? At the IKEA Tallinn store

 

Most of the activities will be happening at the IKEA Tallinn store, but there’s plenty to enjoy in Pärnu and Tartu too. Stop by our physical customer meeting points and discover inspiration and ideas for storage solutions at home.

 

Can you spot them all?

Organising can be simple, inspiring and engaging. That’s why we invite children to take part in our Spot and Solve adventure and discover smart storage solutions throughout the store. Find the answers, complete the game sheet and bring it to an IKEA co-worker at the store entrance to receive a small surprise. Plus, all participants will be entered into a prize draw for one of three €100 IKEA gift cards on 17 September.

 

When? 27 August to 16 September
Where? At the IKEA Tallinn store, IKEA Pärnu small store and IKEA Tartu plan and order point

 

Meet the IKEA mascots

Come and say Hej! to our friendly mascots. Meet Björn the Bear, Meatball, Cinnamon Bun and Famnig the Heart, joined by their newest friend, Frakta the Bag. Starting at 11:30, all your IKEA favourites will gather every hour for a special photo opportunity at the Showroom entrance, just up the escalator. Smile, strike a pose and create lasting memories with the whole family!

 

When? 27-30 August
Where? At the IKEA Tallinn store

 

When? 29-30 August

* At the IKEA Pärnu small store and IKEA Tartu plan and order point, Björn the Bear will be the only mascot joining the celebration.

 

Theatre fun for the little ones

Even the smallest everyday choices can make a big difference. Join the joyful troupe Rõõmulill for their play I Don’t Feel Like It. Through fun and laughter, children will discover why it's important to put things back where they belong, how listening to parents helps us learn and grow, and why some of the best adventures happen away from screens. No need for reservations or tickets – simply swing by and find your cosy spot!

Help what matters find its place

A tidy home doesn’t mean empty shelves. Quite the opposite: good storage solutions should help you make room not only for order, but also for your hobbies, collections and memories. Our boxes, shelves, glass-door cabinets and hooks are designed to help the things that bring you joy become a natural part of everyday life, while always staying close at hand.

Storage guide

Make space for reading

Create a cosy reading corner where favourite books are easy to reach and lovely to look at. With shelves, bookcases, baskets and side tables, every story can have its place.

Make space for growing

Whether it’s herbs on the windowsill or plants in every room, smart storage helps make room for greenery at home. Plant stands, shelves and trolleys keep pots, tools and watering cans organised and close at hand.

Make space for favourite recipes

From open shelves and drawer organisers to jars, boxes and kitchen trolleys, we're here to help you keep ingredients, utensils and much-loved recipe books ready for your next meal.

Make space for personal style

Clothes, accessories and everyday favourites deserve more than a crowded wardrobe. With wardrobes, drawer organisers, hooks, rails and boxes, it’s easier to see what you have, enjoy what you love and get ready your way.

Make space for arts and crafts

Sewing, knitting, wood carving, painting or drawing – creative hobbies often come with plenty of tools and materials. Luckily, we have all the organisers you need to keep everything sorted.

Make space for gaming

Great gaming moments start with a setup that works for you, whether it’s a video game night or a board game around the table. With smart storage, you can spend less time looking for missing pieces and more time playing together.

Make space for being active

From yoga mats and weights to trainers and sports gear, active hobbies need storage that keeps up. Hooks, baskets, benches and cabinets help keep equipment easy to grab, easy to put away and ready for the next workout.

Make space for childhood

Children need room to play, learn, imagine and grow. Toy storage, low shelves, boxes and baskets make it easier for little things to find their place, and for everyday play to become part of the home.

Make space for collections

Collections tell stories, so they deserve to be stored and displayed with care. Glass-door cabinets, shelves, boxes and display solutions help protect treasured pieces while keeping them visible and enjoyable every day.
