6.12. (Live in Helsinki in the United States) is Värttinä's 9th album and first live album, released on 3 September 2001. It was recorded in the Finland Independence Day, 6 December 2000.

All songs on 6.12. appear on earlier Värttinä studio albums. 6.12. has less-varied instrumentation than their studio albums (after Oi Dai).
