Finnish Beniamino Gigli Club (Finnish: "Suomen Beniamino Gigli - seura") is a Finnish society, founded in 1985 to promote the life work of the tenore Beniamino Gigli. It engages in cultural exchange between Finland and Italy by organizing opportunities for Finnish singers to sing in Recanati and, correspondingly, opportunities for Italian singers to sing at Beniamino Gigli memorial concerts in Finland.
The society also maintains relations with Recanati and Beniamino Gigli's art lovers around the world, and strives to support young talented Finnish opera singers.
