From the 2nd till the 4th of July Helsinki will host the yearly Tuska Open Air Metal Festival for the 13th time. On three stages, more than 30 music acts will deliver metal music at its best. You will meet some of the scene’s favourite veterans and get to know some new faces in the metal music scene. The event takes place at Kaisaniemi Park, the heart of the city right by the train station so even with after a couple of beers, getting lost would be hard and after a day at the festival the clubs aren’t too far away to continue the celebration.
Fans of this highly anticipated event get regular updates on the acts that take the stage over the website – www.tuska-festival.fi/en/. But the website is not only informative about the program and the artists of the event. It also provides you with a conduct guideline so ensure the event with proceed smoothly. I guess many metal fans in one place can get a little rowdy as I quote: “Any kind of dressing-up is encouraged as long as the safety of your gear is taken into consideration. When rushing about in the front row you may harm a fellow celebrant with your nail bracelet.”
Since the last acts of the day are scheduled to end at 23.00 the festival is accompanied by many metal and rock themed parties at the surrounding clubs in Helsinki. To name a few Tavastia, Nosturi, Virgin Oil Co. and Dante’s Highlight will all have some great parties.
So to you head bangers out there hurry up and get a ticket for this festival. For more information on tickets, artists, venues, etc. make sure you visit the website.
