How to get to Hiiumaa?

Want to come to Viscosa but not sure how to get here? First, you need to make it across the sea to Hiiumaa island. If your friend’s speedboat or your grandpa’s helicopter happens to be in the shop, you can always do what the locals do and take the ferry.
The ferry comfortably fits buses, cars, motorbikes and bicycles. And the vehicles that fit best are the ones with a ticket bought in advance — the earlier, the better! On a clear day, you might be treated to a stunning sea view, letting the routines of the mainland fall away as you step onto the island with an open mind, ready for either adventure or rest.

If you want to get here extra fast, fly in! And if the weather plays along, the view from the window is stunning.

How do I get to Viscosa?

It doesn’t matter whether you arrive in Heltermaa or Kalana – all roads lead to Viscosa.

Hiiumaa has been reached, now what? It all depends on whether you want to get to Viscosa by a more direct route, or take a detour?

If you are coming to Hiiumaa by car, you can set your own route and, if you have the right equipment, print Viscosa Cultural Factory as your destination, there is no other place with that name in Hiiumaa or anywhere else in the world!

If you left your car on the other side of the sea or arrived by plane, you can take a regular bus, hire a car on the island or hire a taxi.

VISCOSA X JOORITS

Jänki seiklused Hiiumaal

Douglas Wellsi memuaaride põhjal loodud „Jänki seiklused Hiiumaal” on südamlik lugu kultuuride kohtumisest 90ndate alguse Hiiumaal. Hiiu huumor garanteeritud!

VISCOSA X JOORITS

Mere laul

Soome dramaturg-lavastaja Anni Mikkelsoni kirjutatud loost inspireeritud Mait Jooritsa lavastus „Mere laul“ on muusikaline lugu merest ja armastusest. Viimast hooaega!

TARTU UUS TEATER

Soosteri koolkond

Tartu Uue Teatri ja TÜ VKA 16. lennu koostöös sündinud „Soosteri koolkond” äratab ellu Ülo Soosteri pärandi. See pole kunstidokumentaal, ehkki Ülo Soosteri pärand on meeldejääv.

TARTU UUS TEATER

Tuhandenäoline kangelane

Kes teab, kes on Joseph Campbell? Ei teagi. Ja ometi oleme kõik näinud elus ühte või kahte filmi, milles kangelane läheb kodunt välja, elab läbi kõige imelisemaid seiklusi, ja naaseb saladuse hoidjana.

TEOTEATER

Abielutunnistus

on Eestis mälestusdokument. Iisrealis tuleb aga vanemate abielutunnistus esitada rabinaadis, sest ainult siis on võimalik ise rabi juures abielu sõlmida. Mis saab aga siis, kui abielutunnistus on kadunud?

TEATER NUUTRUM

Härra Ibrahim

Ühel Pariisi aguli Sinisel tänaval saab alguse väikese poisi ja vana vürtspoodniku eriline sõprus. Pisivargustest ja üks-lause-päevas alustatud dialoogist alanud sõprus areneb sügavaks teineteisemõistmiseks ja elufilosoofia jagamiseks.

TEATER NUUTRUM

Venus karusnahas

David Ives’i näidend on lugu lavastaja Thomase ja näitleja Vanda kohtumisest prooviesinemisel, millest kujuneb välja mõõduvõtt, milles reaalsus ja teesklus muutuvad ähmaseks ning küsimusele “kes jääb peale?” on iga kord erinev vastus.

LENDTEATER

Erik ja Anna

Erik ja Anna on sõbrad juba alates lasteaiast, ligi 40 aastat, ning paistab, et seda sõprust ei suuda miski väärata.
Kes ei unistaks armastusest, sellest ainsast ja õigest!? Kas on võimalik siduda sõprust ja armastust abieluks?

PIIP JA TUUT

Kontserdil

Etenduses kehastavad klounid Piip ja Tuut kahte koristajat, kel on palutud pärast kontserti saal ära koristada. Sedakorda tulevad nad juba varakult kohale, et ka ise algavast kontserdist osa saada, aga juhuslikult satuvad lavale.

PIIP JA TUUT PÜSTIJALAKOMÖÖDIAS

LOOMAD

Piip ja Tuut Teatri püstijalakomöödia peredele, kus tulevad esitamisele mõned kaasaegsed lood, mis kõlavad kui muinasjutt ning paar ennemuistset lugu, mis on väga tänapäevased. 

PIIP JA TUUT

Spaghetti

Meisterkokk ja tema abikokk teavad väga täpselt, kuidas itaaliapäraseid spagette õigesti valmistada. Aga kõik keeratakse köögis peapeale, kui külla tuleb näljane ja veidra olemisega naaber.

PIIP JA TUUT

Onu Ööbik

Onu Ööbik on üks isemoodi mees, kes käitub, nagu väike poiss. Väga silmapaistev sell ja seda üsna otseses mõttes, sest ta teeb enamus asju teisiti ja hakkab sedamoodi silma.

VAT TEATER

Luukere Juhani juhtumised

Vanaisal ja vanaemal on kõik jutud juba tuhat korda ära räägitud ja nad istuvad vaikides, teevad omi asju ja proovivad teineteisele mitte närvidele käia. Aga õnneks on nende kapis üks üksildane luukere, kes ärkab ellu.

Why Viscosa? Why Hiiumaa?

  • To start with — it’s Hiiumaa! How could anyone even ask why you should come here?
    If you want to get off the mainland quickly, fly in. If you need a slower transition out of everyday bustle, choose the ferry. The rest is already a vacation.
  • Over centuries, Estonia’s second-largest island has gathered distinct cultural layers, ready to be explored. Viscosa is a vivid reminder of how history, time itself, and living nature can shape a place — and turn it into what Viscosa is today.
  • You won’t find anything like this anywhere else.
  • It’s easy to get here, and it’s easy to be here — just park your car and let Viscosa welcome you. From there on, it’s all intertainment — a touch of something deeper. You can spend a whole day at Viscosa, and if you still want more, stay the night. Everything you need is under one roof: theatre, exhibitions, a restaurant, accommodation, and space for simply being.

Add Viscosa to your plans! We’re reopening in June 2026 with the Suvesumin day festival — book your accommodation and tickets early!
