The Tiivistämö staff are part of the City of Helsinki Youth Services Events Unit, which supports young people’s own productions and organizes events for young people both at Tiivistämö and around Helsinki. Our work therefore sometimes extends beyond the venue itself.

The internship includes evening and weekend shifts. We are looking for applicants with a genuine enthusiasm for the event industry and live event technology.
