More information about the festival locations and venues
Alō
Pengerkatu 11
In addition to last year’s performance venues – the Theatre Circus Suosalo tent in Alli Trygg Park, the summer street in Karhupuisto, and Kallio Church – we now also have an old cinema on Pengerkatu. The art deco hall, which operated under the names Kinola, Kino Pylvässali, and Arina since the 1930s, is remembered for being the home of Ryhmäteatteri for over thirty years. The venue is now known as Alō.

This summer, too, Teatteri Sirkus Suosalo's tour concludes in Kallio.

Here, numerous Nordic premieres and new cinematic experiences will be presented.
