National Audiovisual Institute is moving to new facilities! Starting from 1 December 2023 you can visit us at Kaikukatu 2 C, 00530 Helsinki. Our postal address remains the same – P.O. Box 16, 00501 Helsinki.

Moving can’t help but affect our daily services, and some exceptions will prevail until early 2024. KAVI’s library has already closed for the rest of the year. It will reopen its doors in early 2024. The exact date and time will be specified later. More information is available via email: kirjasto@kavi.fi

Collection services have lengthy breaks from mid-October till the end of the year. Customer service will recommence in new facilities in January 2024. More information via email: archivist Tommi Partanen/Film Collections (tommi.partanen@kavi.fi), archivist Mari Kiiski/Video Services (mari.kiiski@kavi.fi) ja archivist Olavi Similä/Non-Film Collections (olavi.simila@kavi.fi).

Radio and Television Archive’s (RTVA) viewing points can be accessed until the end of November. In December RTVA’s services will be limited and only available by prebooking. More information via email: Tuula Peltonen/Information Service (tuula.peltonen@kavi.fi).

Kino Regina (at Oodi) is not in any way affected by the upcoming move. Our cinematheque will continue serving film enthusiasts within its regular programming.

We apologize for any inconvenience caused by these extraordinary circumstances and look forward to seeing you again next year!
