Brett, if you join the Helsinki Expat Meetup group on Facebook you will automatically get invites to all upcoming meetups.
You will also be able to see the list of attendees. It does not cost anything to join Facebook and it is easy to do so I would advise you to join.

Helsinki Social Life ( not a Facebook group ) might also be of interest to you:
