Welcome to discover the new Turku Music Centre Fuuga!

Fuuga, the home of all music, opens its doors on Monday 26 October. We invite you to celebrate the new music centre! On this page you will find more information about Fuuga’s opening festival. We will update the details as the big day approaches, so stay tuned.

The opening festival features both ticketed and free events, theme days by our content partners Turku Philharmonic Orchestra, Turku Music Festival and Jazz City Turku, as well as sneak peek tours of the new music centre. Restaurant Frida and wine bar Fino open at the same time as Fuuga – drop in for a bite or a glass while exploring Fuuga.
