TURKU FAIR AND CONGRESS CENTER
(TURKU FAIR CENTER LTD.)
The Turku Fair and Congress Center is a versatile venue for fairs,
exhibitions, meetings, congresses and public events. Every year, at the
Fair and Congress Center, located in Artukainen, in Turku and near the
city center and harbour, almost a hundred different events and occasions
are arranged. About 300,000 guests visit the events every year.
The Turku Fair and Congress Center was completed in 1989. During the
past decade, many more exhibition and meeting facilities have been
constructed to fulfil the ever-growing demands. In 1995, a grand
auditorium for 700 people was completed, which enables the Center to
host international congresses and professional fairs. The facilities are
still being developed to meet the needs of congresses in particular. In
addition to the auditorium, there are three separate seminar facilities
for 20-150 people available to the meeting organisers. As to exhibition
space, the Center has altogether about 13,000 m² of exhibition space in
four different halls.
