UMO Helsinki Jazz Orchestra will return to the concert stages with the whole big band this week.
A customer survey conducted by UMO Helsinki Jazz Orchestra in May revealed that customers have a strong yearning for live concerts. About two thirds of the responds said customers are eager to attend concerts as soon as possible. Now finally in autumn, UMO Helsinki Jazz Orchestra will return to the concert stages with the whole big band this week.
In the light of current information, the early autumn concerts mentioned below will take place as responsibly produced concerts with attention paid to safety distances. UMO sells only a part of the auditorium seats for concerts, so that adequate safety distances can be guaranteed at events. UMO has expanded the concert ticket return policy and in case of illness, the customer can return their tickets even on the day of the concert. UMO follows the authorities' instructions and responds to them in order to ensure safe concert experiences at the events for customers, staff and performers alike.
August–October concerts
UMO's concert calendar will be updated and new concerts will be published as travel and other arrangements are confirmed. Program is subject to changes.
