Ticket Sales Have Started!
Ticket sales are already underway, and tickets can be purchased from several different channels, such as Ticketmaster, Lippupiste, and Tiketti. We recommend getting tickets early, as the event has generated great interest in previous years and tickets may sell out quickly.
The festival area is easily accessible by public transport, and there are good services on site, including several food stalls and free water points. Safety is a top priority for us, and there are comprehensive security measures in place to ensure our visitors can focus on enjoying the event. Remember that the festival’s age limit is 18, and it’s a good idea to keep your ID with you. Prepare for an unforgettable weekend in Helsinki 2025!
