About the venue: Kulttuuritehdas Korjaamo

Korjaamo is a cultural venue in Töölö, Helsinki, housed in a former tram depot dating from the early 20th century. The industrial brick halls host theatre, concerts, film screenings and a wide range of events throughout the year. The original architecture - high ceilings, exposed brick - has been kept intact as a defining feature of the space.
