Vantaa Culture Kids

If the child lives in Vantaa and was born in 2023 or after, the child’s guardian can enroll the child as a culture kid. 

You will receive invitations to events, sent to your email, and you can enroll in events most suitable for you. The events are free of charge.

Welcome to enjoy happy and experiential moments in our cultural events! 

Vantaa Culture Kids receive invitations to cultural visits every year until the child starts school.

The events targeted at Vantaa Culture Kids have been planned to support children's development and different developmental stages. An adult's and child’s together time promotes the wellbeing of the entire family and their coping with everyday life.  

 

The events are arranged by art and cultural actors in different parts of the city. The events are suitable for all families, regardless of language proficiency and cultural background, unless otherwise announced. 

 

It can be exciting to participate in an events with babies and small children. The events have, however, been planned in a child-oriented way, to make participation as easy as possible. The staff of the event will guide and support the participants. 

Here you can find information on the service in different languages.

After visiting the event, Vantaa Culture Kids' caretaker can give feedback by filling out an electronic form.

With the feedback received from the events, we can develop activities together with the families of Vantaa Culture Kids!
