Did you know that Turku has the highest number of homeless people in Finland relative to its population? In order to make the situation of rainbow people in Turku visible, we are collecting experiences about housing and homelessness at the information point. So if you want to participate in the advocacy work, you are welcome to join us or just come and say hello!
At the MLL Varsinais-Suomen Korui&Viboi point, you can assemble a chosen piece of jewelry from beads for free while chatting with other people at the point. You can also come to the point to calm down and focus only on crafting jewelry if you need a quieter moment in the middle of the park party.
Turku Pride and Hebe collective’s friend point will allow you to find pride company!
The Turku Network Against Sexual Violence can also be found in the park.
There are hidden stones painted in the colors of the rainbow and other LGBTQIA+ flags in the park area. Find a stone as a souvenir, and share a picture of it on social media or hide it at the next Pride you attend!
Drinking alcohol is prohibited within the official park party area of Turku Pride. However, the official park party area is only a small part of Kupittaa Park, and the rest of the park is free to picnic in!
