Location
MANILLA CULTURE FACTORY
The first venue for the festival is, as usual, the charmingly rugged Manilla factory district on the banks of the Aura River. Over 150 years old, the culture factory is home to a diverse range of cultural and leisure activities. Viinatehdas (The Old Liquor Factory) is also located at Manilla. You can find Manilla here:
Itäinen Rantakatu 64, 20810 Turku
The distance from the city center to the Manilla factory is two (2) kilometers. The journey takes half an hour on foot along the idyllic Aura River or 10 minutes by bus. Buses stop on Itäinen Rantakatu next to Föri (the city ferry), which is close to the Manilla factory. Up-to-date timetables, stop maps, and route guides can be found in the Föli route guide.
More detailed festival maps and accessibility information for Manilla can be found on the Accessibility & safety page.
Art House Turku
The second venue for the festival is a former tobacco factory, now Art House Turku (Taiteen talo), which also houses the arthouse cinema Kino Kilta and Gallery Aski. You can find the Art House here:
Nunnankatu 4, 20700 Turku
The Art House is easily accessible on foot, by bike, or by public transport. The unique nature of the Turku Old Town makes private car travel more challenging. The Art House can be reached by many buses. The nearest stops are the Tuomiokirkkotori stop on Uudenmaankatu and the Kåren’s stop on Hämeenkatu. You can find bus timetables in the Föli route guide.
Bicycles are allowed in the courtyard, and there are dedicated bike parking spaces with frame locks next to the factory wall and in front of the F building. During the 2025 summer season, the Luostarin Välikatu bicycle parking area will be located on Nunnankatu. There are also bicycle parking spaces with frame locks on the Old Great Square. There may also be event-specific instructions for bicycle parking in the courtyard.
Strollers etc. can be parked on the wall in the courtyard of the house. Event-specific instructions are also possible. More detailed festival maps and accessibility information for the Art House can be found on the Accessibility & safety page.
