Talk:Logomo

In my view the building is notable both culturally and historically. The cultural notability comes mainly from the buildings role as the location of various art exhibitions, TV-shows and theatrical plays, which will continue to take place in the building, thus increasing its notability as time goes by. The historical notability comes from the buildings long history as a locomotive work shop and storage, which spans over a hundred years. Aceman87 (talk) 20:10, 8 August 2017 (UTC)

Proposed update — ownership, events, development (July 2026)

I am disclosing a conflict of interest (see my user page). The article's ownership and management sections are outdated. Below are sourced updates based on Yle, Turun Sanomat, and official press releases.

requests N Not done and not likely to be done

Proposed infobox change

Find in the infobox:

 | owner = Logomo Oy (Hartela Oy 61% and City of Turku 31%)
 

Replace with:

 | owner = Logomon Tapahtumatilat Oy ([[Turku|City of Turku]] 51%, Sunborn Events Oy 49%)<ref name="stt2020" /><ref name="yle2020" />
 

If the infobox template supports it, also add:

 | management = Logomo Oy
 

Proposed new section: Ownership and management

Add after the History section:
