The workshop is open throughout the event, and admission is free. You can find the workshop in the cabinet, which is accessed through the Tavara-asema’s balcony. The workshop is made possible by Pirkanmaan Jätehuolto.

The event also features a panel discussion curated by Second Hand Tampere ry. In the panel discussion, fashion designer Tiina Rikala will share her experiences in vintage & second-hand entrepreneurship at
