• Main Stage from age 5, since younger children are not admitted there; the foyer shows welcome toddlers, and babies under 1 go free
• Every child needs a ticket in the Main Stage and Almi Hall, with no sitting on laps, and the youth discount takes 40-50% off for ages 20 and under
• Stalls or 1st Balcony seats give kids the best view, since the upper balconies are far from the stage; booster cushions wait by the auditorium doors

Finland's national opera and ballet company performs in this opera house beside Töölönlahti Bay. Alongside full-length opera and ballet on the Main Stage, the foyers host 30-minute shows built for small children: Mini Operas, where two singers and two musicians retell a big opera and the audience joins in, and Magic Moment, an interactive ballet workshop based on Cinderella. Students of the Ballet School also stage their own Nutcracker.
