Tuska Sunday always feels a bit different. More relaxed, a little bittersweet, but no less memorable. We wrapped up the weekend with Kim Dracula, Whitechapel, Motionless In White, Nothing More, Noiduin and a stunning headline performance by Lorna Shore. Read our final festival report now.
Rituals at Tuska. Eihwar and Noiduin brought pagan and Nordic folk energy to the KVLT Stage during Tuska 2025.
Pictures of the captivating performances of Noiduin, Kallomäki, Valkeat, the fire ritual and several dark fusion dance groups at this year’s Pakanafestarit in Finland!
At Tuska this year, we sat down with Jemina and Henri from the Finnish dark folk act Noiduin to talk about how they channel their own country’s folklore, pagan history and ancestors in their music and performances, how tricky it can be to work with traditional, self-build instruments and how they hope people can connect with something deep inside themselves when listening to their music.
Last day of Tuska 2025 already starting in a couple of hours! We’re really excited to see the epic headliner show of Lorna Shore, but besides them, here are 7 acts that are taking over a stage today you shouldn’t miss out on in our opinion, with Havukruunu, Kim Dracula, Nothing More, Octoploid, Polaris, The Vantages and Noiduin! Who are you looking forward to seeing today if you’re joining us at Tuska?
