The Cable Factory houses a set of spaces for a wide variety of uses-offices, restaurants, museums, studios and galleries, as well as tiny band rehearsal rooms and two radio stations (Radio City and KissFM). The building is utilized to the smallest nook. Until the 1980s the Cable Factory was what the name implies, and the interiors vary in shape and size. Although every room has been thoroughly renovated, the basic feeling is still as austere as that of a factory. This does not discourage a wide range of activities from taking place here, you can catch art festivals, exhibitions and theater, dance and music performances. The impressive 100-meter (328-foot) Sea Cable Hall (Merikaapelihalli) is frequently used for performances, and has seen events featuring thousands of people, wild horses, motorcycles and symphony orchestras.
