KaapeliWalks are guided tours at the Cable Factory. On the tour you will get a glimpse of the changes the Finnish society has undergone from the era of industrialization to the rise of the creative class. And you will get a peek behind the scenes of LIFT too!
The tours take place on 11th October at 16:00 and 18:00, starting from lobby C. The tour takes about an hour and a half, and concludes with drinks at the Cable Factory rooftop sauna!
Places on tours are booked during ticket purchase, be quick, because space is limited!
LIFT builds on the previous events, Media Digital Summit and SULA , lifting them to new heights.
LIFT is a new kind of event for media, arts and culture. The world is not finished. Right now, it needs joint action, creativity and new stories.
LIFT is about the power of cooperation, playful experimentation, diversity and the ability to both challenge and be challenged. LIFT is also about culture, shared experiences and encounters.
LIFT provides opportunities and possibilities: meeting those engaged in creative arts and media, hearing domestic and international speakers as well as testing new ideas and finding new views and experiences.
LIFT invites participants to break the barriers between arts and media, encouraging them to find new partners and create networks.
LIFT is an open forum for anyone with a keen interest in media and culture, be it professional or otherwise. LIFT challenges and inspires to cross borders. Join us! Together we can build a better, more meaningful future for all of us.
