Starting in September, the City of Tallinn will introduce major changes to its sports funding principles for children and youth, increasing the total support volume by nearly 75 percent. This reform updates the previous funding system, which has been in place for almost 17 years. The new model aims to support a greater number of athletes and clubs, increase transparency, and link support more clearly to encouraging physical activity among young people.

During the 13th Youth Song and Dance Festival from 30 June to 2 July, the city of Tallinn will have special buses leaving the city centre, make some public transport lines run more frequently and create designated parking areas for bicycles and scooters. Tallinn’s public transport is free for all passengers during the big celebration – from 30 June to 2 July.
