We are a part of the EcoCompass (EMS) certification by the Finnish Association for Nature Conservation. An initial survey was made in September and now we continue to build our activity towards the audit in May 2023 and to obtaining the environmental certificate.

The 2022 festival saw the premiere of the 21/45 -Dramatic Entrances -performance, which drew the largest festival audience. The performance built upon the stories of immigrants arriving in Turku in a both funny and touching way. Finfringe festival wants to support the important work done by the Red Cross benefiting the Ukrainian refugees as well as refugees and immigrants from other parts of the world. This is why we donated the whole box-office income of the 21/45 -Dramatic Entrances -performance to the Red Cross disaster relief fund.
