The Finnish National Opera and Ballet is supported by the Ministry of Education and Culture and by the Cities of Helsinki, Espoo, Vantaa and Kauniainen. Our main partners are Helsingin Sanomat and the Varma Employment Pension Insurance Company. Our other partners are Finnair, Evli Bank and Kalevala Jewelry.
Our partnership with Varma, which began in 1984, will continue at least until the end of 2018.
Our partnership with Helsingin Sanomat includes broad-based marketing collaboration, stakeholder events and national broadcasting of opera and ballet performances and contents on HSTV.
Finnair, a leading Nordic airline, was the Finnish National Ballet’s partner for the tour in Japan in spring 2017.
Co-operation with Kalevala Jewelry gave birth to a necklace inspired by Kenneth Greve’s Land of Kalevala.
