The Music Hall and the adjacent Turku City Theatre will form a unique performing arts entity that will attract both national and international performers and audiences.
Turku Music Hall is the musical heart of the cultural riverbank.
Home to all music
The Music Hall will serve as the new home of the Turku Philharmonic Orchestra. Its state-of-the-art acoustics ensure that orchestral music can truly shine. The orchestra will perform weekly in the concert hall. Other diverse programme content will be developed together with various partners.
The Music Hall serves as a platform for close collaboration with local and international actors. The convertible halls – the concert hall and multifunctional hall – enable a rich variety of complementary offerings, from popular music ranging from jazz to electronic music, to multi-arts projects combining different art forms.
Local actors are key partners, but there is also room for one-off collaborations and guest performances. This will create a diverse range of content that resonates with a larger audience.
Open meeting place offering new experiences
The Music Hall is more than a concert hall. It is a shared meeting place for locals, allowing everyone to enjoy interdisciplinary art experiences and complementary services. Whether it’s a concert, gig or a cup of coffee on the rooftop terrace with a friend, lunch or a public event at the heart of the city – by offering all this, the Music Hall contributes to a communal and vibrant urban culture.
The programme and services of the cultural entity formed by the Turku City Theatre and Music Hall Fuuga are managed by an expanding theatre company led by CEO Arto Valkama, Theatre Director Mikko Kouki and the Director of the Music Hall Samppa Rinne.
