Festival pass and wristband

Festival pass

By showing your Festival Pass to a ticket agent, you can get a ticket for half price.

The festival pass is available to all free admission programme performers and course participants who have paid their course fees by 30th April. The course and camp price for Ballet School of the Finnish National Opera and Ballet course participants and Boys’ Dance Camp participants also includes a festival pass.

The festival pass can be picked up at the start of Kuopio Dance Festival (12th of June), at the Shop & Info points in the Music Centre and the Dance Pavilion. The discount only applies to same-day performances and if there are still seats available. Festival passes cannot be used to buy tickets online. The festival pass is personal. Please be prepared to prove your identity.

Festival wristband

The event organisers would like to remember and thank the volunteers for making the festival possible.

Wristband holders receive free entry to festival performances and courses, subject to availability. When the show starts, please wait your turn in moderation so that those who have bought tickets go into the hall first.

You can pick up your festival wristbands at the start of Kuopio Dance Festival (12th June), at the Shop & Info points in the Music Centre and the Dance Pavilion. Be prepared to prove your identity. The festival wristband is personal.
