Program
During the event days, there will be plenty of free programme for the public on both sides of the Aura River and near the city centre. The main stages of the event are located on the west side of the river at Varvintori and in front of the Suomen Joutsen.
The music festival Slot Festival, held in conjunction with the event, will entertain visitors at Turku Castle Park from Friday to Saturday, 19 to 20 July.
The program culminates on Sunday at 12 PM with the spectacular Parade of Sails, as the sailing ships depart through the Archipelago Sea towards their next ports.
