Tampere will open a new light-art trail along the Tammerkoski rapids this autumn to mark the 120th anniversary of universal and equal suffrage.

A new light-art route along the Tammerkoski rapids will bring fresh cultural experiences to Tampere this autumn. The trail will mark the 120th anniversary of universal and equal suffrage.

The city has commissioned Teatteri Täsmä ry to produce the multidisciplinary cultural event. Officials awarded the contract without a competitive tender after deeming the purchase to be of a special nature.

The agreed production package covers event planning, production work, cooperation with stakeholders and marketing and communications planning. The contract runs until 15 November 2026 and is worth up to €19,112 excluding VAT. It takes effect once signed and the decision is legally valid.

Tamperelainen reported the decision and noted the story text was generated by AI and reviewed by a reporter.
