Transportation
Traveling to Pori and Kirjurinluoto is easy with different traveling methods
Train
Traveling to Pori by train is easy. Extra trains from Pori to Tampere, which go to the main track after the main concerts at night on Friday and Saturday. Extra train from Helsinki to Pori is on Saturday daytime, so that the visitors have enough time to go to Kirjurinluoto main concert when it starts. The tickets will be on sale later in the spring!
