We are now calling for applications in the Zodiak CoProduction category for productions that premiere in 2025.
The CoProduction support includes:
- a co-production support of 20 000 €, to cover salaries and performance fees (alv 0%) (will be revised yearly)
- approximately 4 to 6 weeks of studio time in 2024/2025
- at least 1 week of rehearsal time on the stage before the premiere
The aim is to have 8 to 12 performances on the Zodiak Stage. The minimum audience capacity at Zodiak Stage is 75 per evening.
We also welcome suggestions from outside of Finland. For international co-productions Zodiak’s support can total up to 20 000 euros, including the possible performance fee and accommodation in Helsinki. The number of performances will be negotiated with each production.

Zodiak's co-production contracts changed in early 2021. CoProduction contracts are no longer concluded with private individuals, but Zodiak's contractual partner must be a legally registered entity that can invoice Zodiak for co-production support. In Zodiak Laboratory category, a fee can also be paid to an individual.
At the time of concluding the co-production agreement (approximately ½ years before the performance period), the working groups selected for CoCommision and CoProduction productions must have a background association, sole trader, cooperative or limited liability company. Note! You can apply in this call even if you do not have such background community yet. Zodiak supports selected workgroups in finding or creating a background community, if needed.
