They do mention the heavy metal in the list of reasons... but I'm wondering about those festivals... wife carrying festival? Air guitar festival I totally understand, but what are the rules on the mobile phone throwing championship?

Also this I did not know: "Did you know that many Finnish newborns sleep in cardboard boxes? Since 1938 Finnish state has provided all expectant mothers with a beautiful, durable box with clothes, sheets, nappies, toys and a mattress – making it an excellent bed for a tiny newcomer."
Charger? Is this true?

The maternity pack has been a thing here for ages...but I've never heard someone actually putting their kids to sleep in the boxes the stuff comes in...but there are a bunch of bad parents in Finland so I'm sure that's happened too.
My cat sure likes card board boxes...but even he doesn't sleep in them he just sits in them and tears them apart!

All cats love boxes. It could have contained 50 tins of the highest quality cat food but they'd still be more interested in the box!

Not entirely true. Leo didn't care at all about boxes..couldn't be bothered with them.. But Sly is fixated on them. :D

Does this mean there is a "Cats and Cardboard Boxes Festival" in Finland?
And if not, is there about to be one?

Thankfully Finland is not part of the Red Communist map, but it was a close call for a while.
