Who says festival season ends with summer? In Finland, the dark months come alive with music: experience the true punk spirit at HKI SKEPU FEST (starting tonight), get in touch with your ancestors and nature at Pakanafestarit, discover new talent at Lost In Music, embrace the shadows at Hellsinki Industrial Festival, sail into chaos with the Hellsinki Metal Cruise, sink into sorrow at Melancholy Mass Festivals, and feel the fire indoors at John Smith Rock Frozen. When the nights are long, Finland turns the volume up.

Last week, Finnish modern melodic metal band Northern Genocide introduced their new vocalist Joni Parkkinen and released the new track ‘Roviolla’, their take on a track from the legendary Finnish pop rock band Gimmel! And they’re working on a new album to be released in 2026!

Headlining Tuska 2026 will be Bring Me The Horizon and Bad Omens, backed by a diverse first wave including The Plot In You, Blood Incantation, Queensrÿche, Kublai Khan TX, Malevolence, Soilwork, Rivers of Nihil, Ensiferum, Bloodred Hourglass, Majestica, Melrose Avenue, The Callous Daoboys and Neckbreakker!

We’re already getting excited for another memorable weekend of metal and alternative music in Helsinki! 3-day tickets are already available right now.
