Projected onto the giant wall by the escalators connecting the airport train station and Helsinki Airport terminal, Culture Stage is a 12-metre wide and 6.5-metre high screen where passengers can enjoy snippets of the world of opera and ballet. The imagery is accompanied by the music of the performances, which is created in the space as a soundscape by loudspeakers mounted next to the screen.
The sample performances are recordings from the National Opera and Ballet's repertoire. The performances change regularly, so there is always something new to experience.
