Description
Celebrate the country of Finland with our top-quality Finland flag. These flags are constructed in the United States using premium nylon, a durable, fray-resistant material. Nylon is also lightweight, meaning it can fly even in gentle breezes. The iconic blue Nordic cross is digitally printed for vivid color and sharp lines that are also fade-resistant.
Each Finnish flag has a sturdy canvas heading and brass grommets for secure attachment to any of our outdoor flagpoles. We offer this flag in sizes 12” x 18”, 2’ x 3’, 3’ x 5’, 4’ x 6’, 5’ x 8’, and 6’ x 10’. The 3’ x 5’ is the most popular among our customers and an excellent fit for our 6’ tangle-free flagpole.

Finland Flag Meaning & History
After Finland declared independence in 1917, a nationwide competition was held to determine the new national flag. One submission used the same Nordic cross design as the Danish flag but as a yellow cross on a red field. Another entry consisted of diagonal blue and white stripes. These two designs were combined to create the blue Nordic cross we know today.
The blue color of the Nordic cross on Finland’s flag symbolizes the lakes and skies of the country, while the cross itself represents Christianity. The white background stands for the snow that covers the nation in winter.
