Experience culture
- Free admission with the Kaikukortti card in Kainuu in 2019
For Kaikukortti holders in Kainuu in 2019
Are you interested in culture? Culture belongs to everybody!
Everyone has the right to go to concerts, festivals and the theatre even if they are financially hard pressed. A solution developed to this end is Kaikukortti, which can be used throughout the region of Kainuu.
What is Kaikukortti? With Kaikukortti you can get free tickets to, for example, festivals, concerts, dance performances or the theatre. With the card you can also get a place for free on courses at adult educational centres. The card is personal and free of charge. Kaikukortti can be used throughout Kainuu across all the municipalities and it is valid until the end of 2019.
Who can get a Kaikukortti? You can get a Kaikukortti if
• you use as a client services provided by Kainuu-based social welfare and health communities that are part of the Kaikukortti network.
• you are financially hard pressed and unable to attend cultural events or courses for that reason.
• you are over 16 years old.
Where can you get a Kaikukortti? • You can get a Kaikukortti from the social welfare and health communities that are part of the Kaikukortti network and whose services you use as a client.
• Ask the personnel for your own card.
• Getting the card doesn’t require separate proof of your income.
• At the end of the brochure you will find a list of the communities distributing Kaikukortti in Kainuu.
Where can you use Kaikukortti? Kaikukortti will get you free tickets for many cultural venues in the region of Kainuu, such as concerts, museums, dance performances and the theatre. There are more than 20 cultural operators in the Kainuu Kaikukortti network, and the card applies to a large part of their cultural supply.
With Kaikukortti you can get tickets to cultural events produced by different Kainuu municipalities or attend courses at six adult education centres in Kainuu.
You will find information on which events, performances and courses the Kaikukortti applies to at the websites of the cultural operators that are part of the network. You can also call the site you are interested in and inquire about the supply to which the card applies.
In the chapter “Kaikukortti cultural venues” of this brochure you will find a list of the venues that are part of the Kaikukortti network.
How can you get a ticket or course place with your Kaikukortti?
You can get tickets to cultural venues or a place on a course through the ticket sales channels of the participating cultural venues and adult education centres, excluding online sales. The number of available tickets and course places may be limited.
When booking a ticket or a course place state your Kaikukortti number and be prepared to show your card. If you get a ticket through a commercial ticket agency you will have to pay the service fee, even though the ticket itself is free of charge. Tickets for most of the Kaikukortti cultural venues can also be obtained directly on location without a service fee.
Bring your Kaikukortti with you Bring your Kaikukortti with you when attending an event or a course. The personnel may ask to see it.
Tickets for your children too If there are under 16-year-old children in your family you can get free tickets with Kaikukortti for them too if you will attend the same event together. The children cannot however attend the adult education centre courses with you through Kaikukortti.

Community Kaikukortti Community Kaikukortti cards are available for employees of the social welfare and health communities that distribute Kaikukortti cards. An employee can get a free ticket with the community Kaikukortti when arranging a small group visit for one or more clients who are Kaikukortti holders. The community Kaikukortti does not apply to the course supply of the adult education centres.
If you’re interested in experiencing culture together with a small group or with an employee, a good idea is to ask if an employee of the community distributing Kaikukortti would join you to, for instance, the theatre.
Company from a Sotkamo voluntary culture companion Loooking to find company for a visit to a cultural venue? If you live in Sotkamo you can ask for a voluntary culture companion to join you. The companion can, if you so wish, also guide you and assist you otherwise if needed. The voluntary service is meant for Sotkamo residents and the culture companions operate in the Sotkamo region. The service does not concern the course supply of the Sotkamo Adult Education Centre.
It is useful to actively follow up on the website of the culture companions of Sotkamo. On the website you will find updated information on affordable arranged shared transportation also to the cultural supply outside Sotkamo. http://kainuu.elakeliitto.fi/yhdistykset/sotkamo/kulttuuriluotsi/
Further information: Aila Flöjt, coordinator of culture companion activities Tel. 044 274 8613 [email protected]
Free admission for assistants The cultural venues that are part of the Kaikukortti network are committed to always offer free admission to a card holder’s assistant or interpretator. An assistant can be, for example, the assistant of a person with reduced mobility, the guide of a person with a visual impairment or an instructor assisting a person with intellectual disability. An interpreter can be, for example, a sign language interpreter, a speech-to-text interpreter or an oral interpreter. The accompanying person must have a separate seat ticket.
Kaikukortti nationally The aim of Kaikukortti is to improve the opportunities of young people, adults and families who are financially hard pressed to participate in cultural life and engage in arts.
