6.12. (Live in Helsinki in the United States) is Värttinä's 9th album and first live album, released on September 3, 2001.

With the exception of "Laulutyttö", all songs on 6.12. appear on earlier Värttinä studio albums. 6.12. has less-varied instrumentation than their studio albums (after Oi Dai).

After being realized in Finland by BMG Finland, 6.12. was released by Resistencia in Spain in 2001. In 2002, it was released in Germany, Austria and Switzerland by Westpark, in Benelux by Frea, and in the United States by NorthSide.
