Plan your visit

Practical notes
Espa Stage is outdoors in Esplanade Park opposite Restaurant Kappeli. No weather or rain-change plan was stated. There is no parking in the park itself.
Schedule notes
The event starts on 8.7.2026 at 15:00. The sources do not give a separate end time; the structured 17:00 end time is based on the next official programme slot on the same stage.
Booking notes
The event is free, and no advance registration or booking is listed.
Age notes
The official text welcomes everyone, and the city event data marks children as the audience. This English-language poetry and music performance works best for children who can follow a short stage show with an adult.
