audience outreach
For daycare groups and 0 to 6 year-olds
We love to welcome daycare groups and other preschoolers to the Finnish National Opera and Ballet. The activities for 0 to 6 year-olds explore the secrets of opera and ballet through performances and hands-on workshops.
Performances
- Daycare groups can enrol in performances of The Magic Flute mini opera (performed in Finnish) as part of the Finnish National Opera and Ballet’s arena tour in Rovaniemi, Oulu, Joensuu and Turku. Each municipality is responsible for the practicalities of which daycare groups can attend the free performances and how to enrol. You can request more information about the performances from municipal education services.
Please note that contrary to earlier announcements, there will be no mini opera performances at the Opera House in spring 2023.
- The Finnish National Opera and Ballet’s arena tour in Rovaniemi, Oulu, Joensuu and Turku also comprises First Taste of Opera & Ballet workshops for babies (held in Finnish). Each municipality is responsible for the practicalities of which groups can attend the free workshops and how to enrol. You can request more information about the performances from municipal education services.
The next First Taste of Opera & Ballet workshops in the Opera House will take place in autumn 2023. Enrolment for the autumn 2023 workshops starts in April.
