Taage’s first gig’s venue celebrates its 30th anniversary this year

The biggest and most popular so-called “youth house” in Turku, where kids between 7 and 18 can find several different activities, will be 30 years old this year.  It is still very active, and has over 40 000 visitors every year. The house is in Runosmäki, which is the biggest suburb in Turku.

Taage performed his very first live gig in that same house in 1987, 22 years ago.
