The vision is to spread interest in these cultural forms and make them more accessible for those aged 18 to 30. PublikUng currently has just under 2000 members, and it only costs kr 50,- to become a member. The only rule is that if you have received a free or very cheap ticket to a concert/performance, the registration is binding. You MUST use your ticket. If you do not, unfortunately, there will be a penalty. There is always a long waiting list, and someone else will go in your place if you cannot attend. Please let us know if you do not use your ticket after all. You can also give it to a friend.
