Over three days, the 12 best Aufguss sauna masters in Estonia compete against each other — 11 solo performances and 3 team performances in total.

A sauna performance is a story told with steam, aroma, music and movement: the sauna master leads the guests through a whole tale while the heat rises.

The championship visitor ticket gives access to all performances of the competition day. Sauna performances are open to visitors aged 12 and over.
