GOING TO SLUSH? HERE COMES THE 8-BIT REVOLUTION
Welcome to The Computer Museum of Kallio and the I love 8-bit -exhibition!
If you are a techie, an active player in the startup scene, or a passionate follower of gaming technology, this place is for you! Located in the heart of Kallio, our museum takes you on a journey through early digital worlds, where 8-bit graphics, the golden age of game consoles, and synthetic sounds flourished. I love 8-bit® exhibition is the perfect counterbalance to the hustle and bustle of Slush.
Here, you can step back in time and experience the era that laid the foundation for today's digital world. The exhibition features legendary 8-bit consoles such as Sega, Nintendo, Atari, and of course, the legendary Commodore 64! There are also unique items on display, each with its own exciting story. This is an opportunity to get closer to digital history and learn about the technology that has made us all love gaming culture and programming.
Although Slush is full of cutting-edge technological innovations, I love 8-bit® reminds us where it all began. The Kallio Computer Museum combines nostalgia, technical expertise, and innovative thinking—just like the core of Slush! Don't just get caught up in the hustle and bustle of the event! Come and enjoy and be inspired by the golden age of computer culture.
Bring your colleagues, customers, and Slush contacts to the museum and make an impression! Book a private event by ordering a group ticket (€25.50/person) + 14% VAT.
