Helsinki City Theatre will have 318,471 spectators in 2025
In 2025, the Helsinki City Theatre had a staggering 318,471 spectators (2024: 278,309*). The occupancy rate of the proposals was 84 per cent. The most viewers during the year were once again the hugely successful Moulin Rouge! A musical that was also number one in the 2024 viewing statistics. The spring 2026 programme has also been of interest to theatre audiences.
“After years, we reached over 300,000 viewers. The last time we exceeded 310,000 viewers was in 2012. In the customer satisfaction survey conducted in the autumn, we received a staggering NPS score of 73 and an overall score of 6.3 on a scale of 1 to 7. The fantastic viewership and the excellent results of our customer survey show that we have really succeeded. The audience trusts the Helsinki City Theatre, our professionalism and our high-quality and diverse repertoire. Our new customer loyalty club, which was opened in October, has already been joined by 18,000 theatre loyal friends. In general, it is great to read that other theatres have also increased their audience numbers. The audience feels that theatre is important,” says theatre director Kari Arffman.
Ticket sales for 2026 have also started well. Read more in the press release.
