During the Night of the Museums, free admission to the Sibelius Museum from 18:00 to 23:30.

We also offer guided tours of the anniversary exhibition “100 Years of Musical Traces” at the following times:

  • 18:15 in Swedish
  • 18:45 in Finnish
  • 19:15 in English

No advance registration is required. The first 25 participants per tour will be admitted.

100 Years of Musical Traces celebrates the Sibelius Museum and its collection’s hundred-year-long history from 1926 to 2026. The exhibition presents phases of the museum from the past 100 years, sheds light on agents that impacted and still impact the museum and features artefacts from the museum’s collections spanning from the earliest instrument donations to peculiar finds, music from the museum’s archives, as well as photographs and posters from past decades – traces of music and music culture which, as such, are impossible to musealise.
