Flow Festival 2025

Flow Festival, the truly unique city festival, has been organised in Helsinki annually since 2004. Flow Festival was born out of the founders' passion for culture. Feeling that Finland and Helsinki, in particular, were lacking a high-quality alternative music festival. In 20 years, Flow Festival has grown from a small club event to the trailblazing European music and arts festival it is today.

While the scale and breadth of Flow have changed throughout the years - more artists, more people, more everything - the founders' original motive still stands every year: to create a festival they genuinely want to attend themselves. Today, Flow's vision is to be an international leader in festivals and one of the most attractive and prestigious festivals in the world. Flow's mission is to offer high-quality and diverse experiences, as well as to renew and develop Helsinki's cultural offering and cultural atmosphere.

Only a walking distance from the centre of Helsinki, the festival takes place at the historical Suvilahti, a former power plant area in Helsinki. The factory area has been transformed into a perfect setting for the festivities with lighting design, decorations, design and the latest in event technology. The charming area also provides plenty of spots for resting and sitting in case of acute festival fatigue.

The Suvilahti festival area houses 10 unique venues for Flow, including massive outdoor and tent stages for thrilling and atmospheric spectacles as well as cosy indoor and outdoor venues for more intimate moments. The Main Stage is fit to entertain the complete festival audience, while the smaller stages are suited for audiences of a few hundred festival goers.
